who is our governor?

[ahka]

MIshka this morning forgot his backpack at home and we had to return back to get it.  I was pretty irritated since last night, plus sleepless night due to thunderstorm and scared Michelle and not feeling good in general (still sick, returned home after daycare instead of going to work). 

I did not want to continue to be upset at him and was wishing that we would start talking about something positive.  So, in the car as we are getting closer to the daycare he asked me, “Mama what is our governor’s name?” 
I told him, “Tim Pawlenty” He started repeating it until it was not sounding right anymore.  I asked him, “Why are you repeating it?”  He answered, “I will get a prize at school if I answer it correctly!”  All the way to the daycare and all the time that I saw him in the morning he kept repeating the name. 
After he came from school I called him and asked if he remembered who our governor is and if he got a prize.  He said governor's name and said that he ate the prize :)
It was pretty amusing.
