Tot Tuesday: Rocking the Vote

Took the Miss G with me to the voting booth this morning.  It is always an interesting experience taking her when I do. She loves to give my ID to the workers. She loves to push the buttons on the voting machine. Miss G always asks the questions of who the people are mommy is voting for, which I love trying to explain on a 4 year old level (NOT). She always ask for her sticker and proudly wants her picture taken once we leave.

By taking her with me, I hope to instill in her the importance of voting. I want to instill in her why her voice is important. When she goes with me, she seems to always enjoy it and appreciate the process. I hope that she always does because the way that she chooses to live and enjoy life may depend on it.

I will keep taking her with me. I will keep trying to explain to her at her level what the political process is about. I want her to always to ask for her sticker. I want her to always to vote and to take part in the process, because it is her right.

It would be filled with antiques and have a large sitting area. It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

On the Road Again.....

It was between Chicago and the state of Pennsylvania. Well....the state of Pennsylvania won out for our little trip for our first anniversary. It is a shorter drive than going Chicago, especially since we do not want to spend most of our mini-vacation in the car. I have a co-worker that lived in Pennsylvania and she gave me some great places for us to visit like, the Phipps Conservatory, the incline at Mt. Washington and the Pittsburgh Zoo ( I think that the hubby would like the aquarium). It is hard to believe that it has been almost a year since our wedding, but I can not wait for our time away. Even though I want to see somethings while we are there, I really just want to relax. If  you know any great places to go or see in the state of  Pennsylvania let me know. We are looking at taking some three day weekend trips in the summer and maybe a week long trip to the beach in the fall.  Do you have any plans for trips anytime soon or this summer? Share we might want to g...
