I just had one of the most extreme tests of my patience as a parent in modeling courtesy and respect.

Kieran's initial take on President's Day is that we'll all run for president on that day (we talk about voting and the election process a lot lately)

I explained that it was a special holiday set aside to be thankful for the good people who have been our presidents.

Kieran immediately replied, "Oh yes, and George Bush is currently our President and he is a good one."

Damned near amputated my tongue.

Yesterday evening we listened to President Bush delivering his 48 hour ultimatum to Saddam Hussein on the radio as I was making a lovely stir-fry with shredded cabbage & chopped apples to accompany our St Patrick's day corned beef. In the middle of the rhetoric Kieran let loose with a disapproving noise somewhere along the lines of 'Ehhhhhhhpbbbbbhhhthththt' then got extremely cranky.

I'm so proud. I couldn't agree with him more.
