Today on my drive into work, I was thinking that 3 year olds are peculiar people, and that I'm not the only one to have noticed this.

Back in March when I attended the Democratic Party convention in my county, one of the other delegates from my district was Alex. He was a tall, lean, soft spoken black guy with a 17-year-old daughter about to graduate high school. He showed off a picture of her in her prom dress, and we other delegates ooh-ed and ahh-ed over how pretty she was. The other two women delegates each had teenagers as well. I was the only one who still had a toddler at home. I had just called my father's house to check on my son, and learned that he had thrown a little tantrum because he wanted to go outside, but could not because when I had packed him up in the car that morning still in his pajamas, I forgot to bring his shoes. He had his socks on, but would not take them off.

"Three year olds are peculiar people," I told my fellow delegates.
