The other day as I was cleaning up the house... all four kids and Alan ran around the house with air soft guns playing "war"...Mas (my 9 year old) tried to end the war, declaring himself Barack Obama (didn't work, no one listened to him). When I posted this on facebook, someone took it the wrong way, but I wasn't making a political statement as much as I was marveling at how we see truth in our children's interpretation of our world. In their innocence and naivete our children may believe that war can be ended by one great leader. They've yet to understand that war is human nature and much more complicated than that.
