Helping A Lady
===============
.
Last summer, on an extremely hot day, temps in the 3 digits, my
son, who is 12, and I were sitting in our truck waiting for my
husband to come out of the grocery store.
..
We had been shopping and forgotten to buy milk. As we sat there
with the a/c running, I noticed an elderly woman crossing the
street. She was quite over-weight and laboring to walk and
looked very sad.
..
As she made her way to sit on the bench in front of us, I jumped
out of our truck, with my son asking what I was doing. I told
him to wait just a minute I would be right back.
..
I went to the woman, who wore no shoes but did wear the stains
of the over warm day, and I asked if I could help her.
..
She looked so surprised and kept looking around me, asking me
why I did that?
..
I told her I thought she may need some help and I was worried
about her. She just kept smiling at me and hugging me over and
over again. At least seven or eight times.
..
I then asked her if she was sure, that I could help her with her

By the time the Lord made mothers, He was into the sixth day working overtime. An Angel appeared and said “Why are you spending so much time on this one?”
.
And the Lord answered and said, “Have you read the spec sheet on her? She has to be completely washable, but not elastic; have 200 movable parts, all replaceable; run on black coffee and leftovers; have a lap that can hold three children at one time and that disappears when she stands up; have a kiss that can cure anything from a scraped knee to a broken heart; and have six pairs of hands.”

Mrs. Michelle Obama on what being First Lady means to her:

Laura Bush
Michelle Obama recently said she will take cues from Laura Bush’s “calm, rational” approach to being first lady. She’s not the only fan: Laura Bush has maintained consistently high approval ratings during the past eight years.
Books, movies and search show our fascination with her. She is the subject of two biographies (this one and this one), and if current rumors are true, she may seal a book deal for her memoirs well before her husband does.In September, this racy book loosely based on her life hit the shelves. The author, a self-described “flaming liberal,” says Bush is a “true role model” and that there is no public figure she admires more. Read More
