The other day I was watching Fox News and Handsome saw a clip where the Govenor of Texas was giving a speech about unemployment and Obama not doing his job in getting America back to work.
Handsome: "Is that true?"
Me: "What true?"
Handsome: "What that guy is saying."
Me: "Some people blame Obama because lots of Daddy's don't have work right now."
(We have been struggling with unemployment for the last few years.)
I could see Handsome thinking quite hard about this.
Handsome: "I think I like Obama."
Me: "Why?"
Handsome: "Because with the Dads not working they can stay home and play with their kids more!"
I had to admit that from his point of view, I would agree, more time to play with Dad sounded great. And actually our kids have enjoyed that aspect of Kent being home a lot more. There has been more soccer and catch, more bike rides, more cuddles, and more stories read from Daddy.
