Obama vs. Alabama

Wednesday, February 25, 2009
Kate's getting ready for bed routine includes some cuddle on the couch time. So we were laying in our usual spot last night doing our nightly cuddling when the Presidential Address started. After they announced Obama and he started walking down the aisle to the podium, Kate spontaneously transitioned from her calm, relaxed state to a highly excited one and started clapping like crazy.

"Look, Momma! Momma - LOOK!! Here comes Sweet Home Alabama!!" she said over and over.

Cody heard her from the other room and stuck his head in the living room to ask me what she was saying since she'd gotten so unusually animated. When I told him, he just smiled and shook his head... he does that a lot around us :).

I thought we had her straightened out concerning OBAMA and ALABAMA after last month when she started interchanging the names (see that post), but apparently I was wrong. We'll have to get back to work on that. But for now, she's thrilled that her current favorite song was written about the man she saw talking on tv before bed - oh the joys of being three years old!
