Oh man... my kid ROCKS! *wipes tear*

[nonconformist]

My kids got home from school a bit ago, and I filled them in on why today has been excellent:

1. We close on our house on Friday, definitely (this has been the longest freaking experience of my life, you have no idea how happy this makes us)

2. Delay has been indicted and stepped down as majority leader (this is mostly just making me giddy, but the oldest (10) is a politico so it pleased him as well)

3. A live giant squid has finally been photographed (this was the big hit with them)

After looking at the pictures of the giant squid and hearing the other reasons today is wonderful, my 10 yr old turned to me with his huge braces smile and said, "This IS a great day! Great for our family, great for science AND great for America all at once!"
