"I hope Mitt Romney loses."
[Gasp! My child is an apologist and a socialist!] "Why, Claire?"
"Because I want Dad to win."
[Sigh of relief...hey, why doesn't she want me to win?!]
"And then we'll all be famous."
Anne was on board with that. Here's her campaign poster:
Anne gets confused. She isn't sure if Claire has Jake running for president, king, or prophet, but she does know that when he wins, we'll all be wearing crowns. And Barrack and Mitt (the colorless guys in the middle) will be upset.
Here's Claire's poster (Jack H! means Jake Henderson!):
Parents who think their children are brilliant are so annoying, but when their children really are brilliant, it's less annoying, right? The guy on the left is Obama the donkey. The guy on the right is Romney the elephant. They're both saying "Boo." How does she know about party symbols? I don't know! She had no help or coaching with this drawing. I love the hands on the bottom. From left to right, they're clapping, handing Jake a trophy, a ribbon, and money. So Jake could be a communist, a socialist, or a capitalist, since all three are after accolades and money. But once again he's being crowned which leads me to believe that although there's an election going on, Claire and Anne are more interested in monarchy than anything else.

I am DYING over here! Yes, your children truly are brilliant. May you hang onto your hat as they become brilliant teenagers that take over the world one economic system at a time. :-)
Holy crap, seriously. They are brilliant, and you are brilliant at writing it all down. Your blog is easily a favorite as I am always laughing. I don't know why, but the little hands handing him stuff was too funny.
I am kind of in love with your kids. They are smart and have their own minds. I like that. Bravo to such a good mom and dad.
