The other day during dinner, Jacob saw a copy of Time magazine on the table. On the cover were John McCain and Barak Obama. He pointed to Obama and said, "This guy's favorite kid's book is 'Harry Potter.'" Then he pointed to McCain and said, "This guy's favorite food is tacos. I'm voting for Ovama because I'm awfully fond of 'Harry Potter' too." He said they talked about the candidates at school. I know he's heard a lot of discussion in our home too, recently. Politics are getting heated around here!
Today when I was pushing Jake on the swings, he said he had learned about an author who was born in New York City. I asked who the author was and he said, "I think it was John McCain. He wrote 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar.'" I said, "I think you mean Eric Carle." He said, "Oh yeah. Eric Carle." How funny that a 5 year old even had John McCain's name in his head. It just goes to show that they do listen more than we think they do.
