my patriotic duty...

Luke participated in his first electorial experience (other than the primary) today. We all stood in line at our polling place for 2.5 hours and amazingly Luke was very patient and did great (and even got a lollipop for his patience.) Thank goodness we were outside most of it, next to a small lawn area. I talked to him a lot about voting and how important it is and how lots of people don't ever get to vote in their country. And when asked, he told them he was here to "help Mommy and Daddy vote."

Baby Henry slept most of the time.
