Emma was disappointed in us today. We told her we were going to vote (in the federal election today) and, having done so, she was really angry with us. Surely she wasn't upset about who we voted for?
Turns out she got the words mixed up. She thought we were going on a BOAT! And when we go on boats, it usually means fun - whether we're going on holiday, seeing some of her special people or just going over to the Granville Island kids market. So when the reality was that she got taken into an empty room and made to wait in a line so that her parents could put little crosses in boxes, I can see why she was a little disappointed.
(With the election results already in, we too, are disappointed. Can't help feeling that people are getting aboard the WRONG boat! But that's another story. Or, at least, I hope it's another story...one that, unfortunately, is likely to affect our family quite a lot more than most. *sigh*)
