Younger turn outs

My son is voting for the first time today. He needed directions to the polling place.

My daughter complained she didn't know enough about both contenders to have an opinion, and was leaning towards Bush because her boyfriend's a bit of a country boy with a big truck. Plus she hasn't lived at home for a few years, so she hasn't had to listen to me run off at the mouth about Bush's decisions. But she was home this morning, ready to head out to Phoenix for her job, and I got to explain everything to her. She went out to vote on her way to the airport, and called me from her cell phone saying "I voted for Kerry for you Mom".

So, although I can't vote here with my Canadian status, I am proud my kids have a sense of duty to their country.
