Jenny has been so funny about the election. First of all, she's been upset for months now that we will be voting for Obama when all her friends say he's a terrible person. Now, she's on board with Obama, but she gets really upset with all her friends who disagree. This week, Emma (whoever she is) told Jenny that Obama hates Christians, and he's a liar, so why would Jenny vote for him.
Plus, she's really into the yard signs for McCain or Obama. She's concerned that Obama's not going to win because there are so many more McCain signs than Obama signs. I explained that everyone in the country votes (well, not really everyone, but you know what I mean), and what matters is who wins the entire country, not just who wins this city, or this state. I don't think she gets it though.
On the way home, we passed an Obama sign, and Jenny said, "There's an Obama sign! Person with the Obama sign, you rock!" And Reagan said she's sick of all these McKayla signs. I don't think McKayla's going to win.

That's so cute. I love that Jenny is not swayed by the kids in her class. I'm worried that mine and Zero's voter registration cards won't get here in time!
Jenny warms my heart. We live in an area that's pretty liberal, so I don't see a lot of McCain signs. When I do see them, it's in Brewster, and I basically have to divorce from reality. Or I'd be screaming at parents and students all day. But not in my normal screaming-at-parents-and-students way.
Eight days till I celebrate hysterically or move out of the country!
