Voting, Part II

It's 7:37am. Kids are up, and I've herded them into the bathroom for tinkles before they get to the cereal cabinet.
J: "Are we going to school today?"
me: "No, not today."
J:"It's a special holiday?"
Me: "Yes, it's a holiday today, so no work and no school. I'll make pancakes later"
J:"It's Easter?"
Me: "No. It's President's Day."
J:"Santa's coming???"
Me: "No, honey, Santa's not coming!"
J:"But I voted for Santa...."
Me: entirely incoherent giggling sounds.
V:"J, Santa only comes on Christmas. And we can't listen to "Jingle Bells"until its Christmas time!"

And a few pictures from Saturday. It's been a rough week, clearly.
