Viva Obama!

I just want to say that I am happy and hopeful that Silas might grow up in a nation in which Barack Obama is President!

Viva Obama!

And, yet again, I set Silas down in his crib at bed time, wide eyed and full of smiles. He rolled onto his side, rubbed his blankie on his face and oh-so-silently slipped off into slumber.

But before drifting off into dreamland he whispered, ever so quietly: “Viva Barack! Viva Obama! Viva los Estados Unidos! Viva! Viva! Viva! Arriba!” With his little democratic fist waving freely in the air…

    are you sure that wasn’t the happy apple screaming loyalty?!?

    Or, maybe he was whispering “Viva la Manzana!” Long live the apple! It was hard to tell…

    Maybe you should allow Silas to choose for himself what type of fist he’ll be waving freely in the air…

    How did I know I’d be getting a comment like this… :)

    He did figure it out on his own. Didn’t you read the post? I wasn’t making it up. Silas’s first words really were “Viva Obama!”
