Oops I missed the debate...

Not really. I think its still on. I watched a little and was interested, but the kids kept asking questions like...

1) Why do we need a new president? Did George Bush Die?

2) Who are you voting for?

3) Whats Iraq?

4) Whats the man that looks like he is from Africa saying? Is he friends with George Bush?

5) Why do they hate each other?

6) Are there wars in Minnesota?

7) Do they listen to God?

8) What's a debate?

9) Can we see what else is on?

I finally said no. Its time for bed.

10) Daddy...Can I have a snack?

HI CHUCK!!

I was so intent on watching it, but like you, I got caught up with everything else! I had to fax an offer, soothe my 4 year old (new stage: TANTRUM!), check my email, etc. Life and more of it!!!

This is why they have DVR's

Still watching it LIVE right now

Chuck~ I remember those days, the good old days... my children are all grown and the time flew by... How come they are always hungry at bedtime- even if they just ate? Do you think it is a stall tactic? LOL!

LOL - My little ones were noisy in the beginning and so I didn't really catch much of it. That's life. At least my hubby heard it.

Chuck, that is funny! I am glad that you chose to spend the time with your kids! I think that is the most important thing that you could have done, if you had really wanted to watch the debate, there is always tivo or the handy VCR.

Lol, too cute! All they did was contradict each other and talk around the answers, as usual. I bet your kids do a better job answering questions. :)

Nothing new I watched part of it and was bored out of my mind!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great questions. The most relevant besides #4 was the last one about a snack. That is what I needed when it was over... A Snack!!! Kids always have great questions.
