A Sign of Things to Come



During the very entertaining and quite effective speech from the Governor of Montana (our honeymoon destination!) there was a sudden stir behind me. Everybody stood, pointing fingers and cameras...it was her.

Donning yet another adorable dress, Michelle along with the rest of her clan and Mr. and Mrs. Biden were seated in a box about ten rows behind. It took at least 15 minutes for the crowd to settle.

To be sure, we are a celebrity-obsessed culture...but more than that we are hungering for someone to adore, someone normal to emulate, someone to call our own once again.

I grew up listening to my mother describe her love of and respect for Jackie Kennedy. I think I finally know what she meant.
