Weekend Kitchen Report
I made corned beef hash on Sunday morning.
Little Man applauded.

You people without kids are missing out...
Saturday night. The living room.
We have a few friends over. I pick Little Man up off the ground and give him the deep "sniff test" from behind.
Eric: How weird is it that that's completely normal now?
Me: Yeah, there's no dignity in parenting.

Dear Little Man,
You're living in exciting times, Little Dude. Yesterday we elected a new President. Senator Barack Obama of Illinois will be sworn in as our next President in January.
Things are tough right now. We're fighting two wars. The economy is pretty bad. We're just starting to realize that oil won't last forever. A lot of people don't have health care. Whoever won this election was going to face a uphill battle.
But... Even with the current situation, the results of this election will pay dividends for years down the road.
We'll get things like cleaner energy and stem cell research. We'll stop torturing people. We'll start rebuilding our infrastructure. The world will see us differently. We'll see ourselves differently.
American democracy is a beautiful thing. It's very exciting when the candidate you voted for wins. Someday you'll experience this thrill.
Also, he's black. Ideally, your generation won't even notice this. But at this moment in time, this is kinda a big deal.
Love,
Dad
