JOINT BASE ELMENDORF-RICHARDSON, Alaska — Melania Trump might have been a fashion model at one time in her life, but she had no qualms ripping off a chunk of messy play dough and getting her hands dirty, just like the three preschoolers seated at the table with her Friday at a military base in Alaska.

Trump expertly rubbed the material between her two hands into a perfect sphere and then rolled the red small ball on the table to the girl seated across from her.

The nation’s first lady then moved to the table to her right and made a harmonica out of ordinary household materials, held together with a rubber band.(snip)

De Benedetto said she exchanged a few private words with Trump. “She is just delightful and very genuine,” she said.

Trump didn’t make a public speech or address reporters, but did take time to shake hands and talk briefly with parents and military members who flocked to the community center.

Our First Lady impresses me greatly with how well she’s adjusted to her position. Every photo shows her in the elements where she belongs. Trump did say she’s be a fabulous First Lady....he was of course right!

Melania is such a beautiful person, inside and out. She is genuinely interested in others, and she obviously loves children. We should pray for her, Baron, and Pres. Trump every day.
