VOTING AND GOOD DEEDS

LUNCH TIME

Today we voted.  It was a great feeling to walk into the polling area and cast our ballots.  We walked out feeling very proud.  Bob even picked up one of those stickers that said, "I voted".  He wore it all day.

When we got back from voting, we went to our neighbors to pick up the three children.  The children, ages 10, 8, and almost 3, didn't have school today.  The parents were working and their nana wanted to vote and have lunch with some of her friends.  She lives near Lansing.  So, tios to the rescue.

The children were so good.  At one point Bob came out of his office and commented that they were like three little angels.  I am sure their mom and nana gave them very strict instructions. 

The oldest, Nathalie, is the same little girl that collected bottles this summer and donated the funds to Feed the Hungry for Los Ricos de Abajo.  As part of our good deed, Nathalie's parents are going to make a contribution to Feed the Hungry.  Everybody wins, and we got to spend time with the kids.

Bob will be ready tonight to watch the election results.  He will be glued to Fox News Special Report with Bret Baier.  Guess how he voted today?

  1. This is a nice post. Sounds like you had a good day and so did the kids :-) We will be watching the same channel and the same shows as you are tonight. As a matter of fact, we are watching it as I type this. Polls are closing and now we get to see the outcome of the voting. I hope we will all be seeing red before the night ends.
