You never can start out too early getting to know your elected officials.  This weekend we worked in a visit from our United States Congressman John Barrow.  John is a great friend of ours and has been very responsive to all of Edie Grace’s requests.  Unfortunately, he was tied up at some other important function and missed Edie Grace’s seventh birthday.  He made it up to her with a personal visit this weekend.  We are looking forward to visiting him at his office in Washington soon.

In Edie Grace’s slide show that we put together on her birthday some of you may have noticed that Edie Grace has pictures with Governors, Senators and other important elected officials.  One great thing about my job – is having the opportunity to work with and meet many influential leaders.  They have all been very kind to embrace Edie Grace.  How many of you can name your elected representatives – let alone have pictures with all of them?  Yeah…I guess we do take lots of wonderful things for granted.  Of course, DeWayne says it is NEVER to early to start prepping her for her Senate or Gubernatorial campaigns.  However, she and I are focused on completing second grade at this point!
