    My friend teaches here!!! Just had to add that in. He's pissed, only certain teachers were invited... and well, based on who's been friends with the principle the longest. BUT he's really happy for the students who got to meet him!

    He is the awesomest dude ever, and I would let him hold my cat Fil and Fil would purrpurrpurr. Or maybe that's tuna in Barry's pocket.

    I think it's a good thing that of the eleventy billion pics we've seen of him with babies, he's never been seen munching on baby feetz. Because I think that just viewing such an image WOULD KNOCK US ALL UP.

    Uhn. babeez. I want them and I want obama to hold them and i want them and him holding them right now.


    It's really a good thing that my boyfriend is nowhere near right now or he would be freaking out about how loudly my biological clock is screaming to my ovaries.

    c) sort of wish I was that baby

    d) squeeeeeeeeee! again.


    19 hours and 45 minutes till he's President. Yes, I am counting.

    @musicpup: This is what I always get out of these pictures of Obama+baby -- he oozes Daddy-ness. He actually knows how to hold and care for a baby, as well as engaging them with the silly faces they love! The shock of it!


    Now, this shouldn't be why we can't wait for him to be President. My husband is pretty great at that stuff, too, and probably did more of it (what with not being a politician and all), but he would make a LOUSY President. The reasons behind my active involvement in the campaign and the vote I cast had nothing to do with Obama's obvious parenting skillz.


    But they do make me happy.

    I so want to believe that there is photoshop involved here, and yet I can see that there probably isn't. Sweet holy Moses in the bullrushes with the Princess of Egypt and his sister looking on.


    My (5 year old) daughter kept asking yesterday during the concert whether all this would be happening if McCain had won, and I kept giving carefully worded versions of "Well, probably not, honey." I should just show her this picture!


    On second thought, no. I love her too much to show her this picture.
