Hungry?

Today Carter brought home some of his classwork.  One of his papers was a book titled Thomas Jefferson and Carter Urbanawiz.

 Carter's teacher wrote:  Awesome Art!  Your best so far! 
Carter was very proud of that.

There would be a question and Carter would write an answer below. 

Some of the questions were:  "What was Thomas Jefferson like as a boy? What are you like as a child?", "Thomas Jefferson opened the University of Virgina.  What is something you can teach people", etc.  All of Carter's answers were what I would expect.

Then came this one...
"As president, Thomas Jefferson purchased the Louisiana Territory.  What would you like to buy to help your family?"
Carter's answer:  "More food for my family."

Maybe I need to up the grocery portion of the budget.

Let me tell you that you are in for it. My boys are eating me out of the house. Leftovers are a thing of the past except on nights when the kids didn't like the meal.

Sounds like something Grant would say - I am fairly certain the majority of his thoughts revolve around food!
