Proud Mama

I've been talking with the kids about the significance of this Inauguration and how history is being made. We've talked a lot about how presidents become elected and how hard their job is. Just when I was sure I was talking over their heads and the day was completely lost on them, Christopher slipped off to "color". He returned with this.

I realize children across the country are scripting thought provoking essays on this momentous time. But my six year old has just mastered reading and is taking on chapter books. The significance and desire in his mind elates me. (Imagine my delight when he whispered that he wants to be president one day?! Dream big, son!)
