Thanks for this report. God has blessed this nation with the Bush family. You are fortunate to have been able to spend time with Barbara Bush - and to tell her you love her - speaking for millions who agree with your words. Nicely written report - thanks! (And for being ASSERTIVE to get to be in the picture with our beloved Barbara Bush!)

Thanks for the ping. I think Barbara Bush is wonderful. (-:

Thank you for this beautiful story.

Keep me on your ping list!!!

as she watches George W. guide our country through this most difficult time, she cant help but wonder if this is the same kid she used to spank and tell him to clean his room!

Spoken like a true mother, as is the rest of this wonderful piece. Thanks for the ping, the laughs, and the tears it produced!

I do agree, she's much smaller in person, as is Laura. I had the privilege of seeing them up close them during the 2000 campaign. They are both lovely!

Thanks OhioWfan, for writing and posting this.

What a report! Great job Ohio...

Sounds like a wonderful evening. Barbara Bush sounds positively delightful and reminds me of the story Laura always tells about her. That if you are at a dinner party, you definitely want to be seated with Barbara Bush because she is so much fun. I don't doubt that for a minute!

oWf, how wonderful! Wish you could've had more time with her - darn those people who cut lines!!! Did you whisper to her that she should become a Freeper ;-)

OhioWFan, thanks for the ping! I loved reading your account of your evening with the former First Lady. What an awesome evening it must have been for you and your hubby!

Btw, when you talk to Eric, tell him that a family friend (that's me of course) said hello. Not a day goes by that I don't think of and pray for you guys.

Thanks!

[ohioWfan]

You are both welcome, and thank you! She IS a wonderful lady indeed!

[ohioWfan]

Thanks! You are now on my ping list Amy!

[Kath]

Thanks for sharing Ohio, I really enjoyed that!!!!

You know, I'll never forget an interview with George and Barbara when Barbara was talking about how much she and Laura loved their respective husbands. She patted her husband on the leg and said about Laura, "She has HER George, and I have MINE."

She's a wonderful lady! (And some day, I'm going to meet Laura, too!)

*Excellent* report of your evening with a truly wonderful woman. I love it so much it has been bookmarked!

Having lived outside of Dayton from 1988-96, she is representative of the wonderful people that are born of the midwest - warm, witty and friendly. I had the pleasure of visiting the campus of Miami University several times - it's so beautiful there.

Cherish your memories! {{{HUGS}}}

I have no doubt that everyone in that room wanted to sit next to Barbara and just talk with her! She's delightful!
