"I'm thinking, Laura Bush is remembering her husband reading stories like that to his kids when they were little."

I read somewhere (can't remember where, as I read so many articles about the Bushes) that when the twins were little, George used to read to them from a book called "Hop on Pop." And when they'd get to the line "hop on Pop," that's what the girls would do...bounce up and down on their dad! LOL I thought that was so cute. Sounds like George was a fun dad, and a good sport.

LOL! Our kids did the same thing when Sir SuziQ read that book to them!

Isn't it great having a couple in the White House who actually spent TIME with their kids while they were growing up, and have the memories of those fun times. I think x 42 and #97 would be hard pressed to come up with any stories about Chelsea in the same vein; they were too busy trying to climb that political ladder!

Very cute. He's a good man, good father, good husband, great President. How fortunate we all are. How proud I am to call him my President.
