My brother-in-law Caleb showed me this book that Andrew wrote when he was 8 or 9 for school, and I thought I would share it with you.

The Western Days by Andrew Brown

hahahahahahahaha! I love it when kids just agree with their parents about politics. When Bush got re-elected in '04, one of the little kids in my mom's daycare came in the next day looking very sad, and when my mom asked him what was wrong he said, "George Bush is a very bad man and I don't want him to be our boss anymore!" I've never laughed so hard in my life.

We did a mini election that year in school, I guess that was 1992, and I remember my parents telling me who to vote for, and then we had big fights at school about who was better. I was in 1st grade. I remember one girl's parents told her to vote for Clinton, but looking back on it, that was weird, because I lived in Texas.

That was cute!!! I love to read the stories that the kids write. Nick.com was having a mock election and allowed the kids to vote by either going online or calling in. My kids all voted for Bush of course, but when David voted he sat there looking all serious and I asked him what was wrong and he said that "I sure hope Bush wins, I voted for him twice." hahaha
