First 100 Days

Jonas participated in his first election on Tuesday, one of the few people who showed up at his Dad's polling place for the California primary election. As seen here, you can see how excited he was. (In fairness to him, it was a pretty lackluster ballot.) But it does give us the opportunity to reflect on a milestone that presidents often use after their own elections: Today marks Jonas' first 100 days in office, so to speak. So let's recap how he's done on the issues. You might recall during his 9-month campaign that he pledged to focus solely on domestic issues. True to his word, he certainly has. He pledged we would not sleep until all his work was done. Again, he certainly has proved that he will not sleep. He vowed to take a long, hard look at our healthcare system. An initial stint in the hospital, followed by multiple doctor visits and shots has allowed him just such access. Lastly, he promised to lower taxes. And come next April 15, our little tax deduction will do just that. So nice going Jonas. If your career in eating, napping, fussing, giggling, going on walks and playing with Mom and Dad doesn't pan out, there's always politics.
