Politics and Tea Parties in the Eyes of a 9-year-old

Sometimes the funniest insights come from my kids.

This evening the little munchkins and I had the pleasure of attending the Marietta Tax Day Tea Party in Muskingum Park.

As we walked away from this living history lesson, the girls were naturally comparing the event to the Boston Tea Party when Kaitlynne popped off with one of her amusing observations.

“Mom, if they dumped a bunch of stuff in the river now you wouldn’t think it was so cool,” she cleverly remarked.

She then proceeded to explain how I would report them to the authorities and write about it in the news!
