    Excellent Barb. Please send my congratulations.

    That's the diplomatic reception room - just think of the people that have walked through those doors.

    It is humbling for sure. Carolyn said that they were all shaking for a good long time after meeting their Commander in Chief. Not many in uniform get to do that.

    And I'm sorry that we couldn't just post the picture - it actually requires permission from the White House to post on something like PhotoBucket.

    I can see it now (thanks Tony.)

    Nice photo, Barb. It's a rare honor to be able to meet the Commander-in-Chief. That's something your daughter will remember the rest of her life. Congratulations to her, and to you for raising such a capable and talented woman.
