Barack-oli

Nathan was the hit of his school today. He wore a Barack Obama t-shirt that Heather brought back from Washington DC. He told his teachers who was on his shirt, and they thought it was so cute, they asked all the other teacher to ask him who it was. When one of the teachers he didn't know asked him, he was too shy to answer. A little girl sitting next to him was not so shy, and she answered for him. "Barack-oli" she proudly announced. As in broccoli! :)

Funny! We tried to teach Catie to say "Barack Obama," and instead she calls him "Oba Mama!"

I can just see Nathan proudly displaying his shirt. Catie's version is also cute. The name is certainly a mouthful for a child.
