Sometimes the gravity of events must be forced to the back seat, and having a three-year-old in the house is just the way to do it. Instead of watching war updates on the news this morning, we watched Sesame Street and Mister Rogers. There's plenty of time for war stuff, and for all our pious rhetoric about the Reasons We Fight -- to preserve our liberties, our culture, et cetera -- I think that sometimes we still forget to actually partake in the things for which we fight.
(Yes, I'm still suffering the cold and hopped-up on over-the-counter stuff. Deal with it.)
