Here, there and everywhere

Hello again! As you may recall from yesterday’s post, we are currently smack-dab in the midst of a series of three posts comparing Rockford’s business-trip days with my own days on the homefront with the kids.

We don’t generally do much out of the ordinary when Rockford is out of town, but early in this trip I received a rather unexpected invitation and subsequently found myself spending time with the president of the United States. It was a thrilling opportunity, and it made my photo for Wednesday considerably more interesting than Rockford’s.
