Mr. President

Evan as Washington and Owen as Lincoln.
Thanks to an amazing first-grade teacher, E and O are obsessed with U.S. presidents. They've asked us to buy them books about presidents, help them collect coins and dollars, and Grammi even got them costumes for Christmas.

President's Day was a HUGE deal at our house this year. The twins dressed up (as usual), and we watched all of the Lincoln specials on NATGEO. They sat, mesmerized, through all three of them.

I'm really glad their into all this presidential stuff. They're learning about good leadership, conflict resolution and how our country works.

Evan's pretty sure he wants to be president some day. Owen thinks that's cool, but he won't live in the White House with the rest of us because he'll be too busy playing in the NFL. But he will come and visit.
