Election Day

[wolfrose]

I exercised my civil right to vote today and was privileged to witness my 19 year old daughter register and cast her first vote today.

I woke up this morning with only a few hours of sleep and threw on some clothes. I then called my son-in-law so he and my daughter could ride with Parker and I down to the polling location. They both had to register so they could vote and I'm happy this state is one that allows registering at the polling location on election day.

So even though I do not at all expect Wyoming's 3 electoral votes to go to Obama all four of us did cast our votes for Obama... and every other democrat on the ballot. I left the one where only republicans were on there blank just to make a statement.

Remember, voting is a RIGHT so if you haven't voted yet please do.

My two older kids both voted for the first time today. Daughterling in Oklahoma, and the older boy here in Ohio. She's 19, he's 18, and they were both thrilled to get to make a difference. :)

And it's nice to be a mother of kids who take their civic duties seriously, isn't it? :)
