Just as big as chocolate
I let the boys stay up tonight, mainly because I wanted to watch TV and not get caught up with the pre-bedtime whirl. That's how, at 8 p.m., Firstborn Son and Wonder Boy got to see Barack Obama elected on CNN and watch as Mama tried to impart the importance of this day.
"We're watching history?" Joseph asked, even as his little bro asked hopefully if he could now watch his Veggie Tales DVD.
"This is history, baby," I said.
"This day is just as important as the day they invented chocolate!" Joseph proclaimed.
When our 44th president strode onto the stage, Sandro pointed to the TV excitedly and said, "That's the United States of America!"
I think he was pointing to the line of flags on the stage, but pointing to Obama works just as well.
