Thank you, Mr. President

I do not think that Jackson has ever been more proud of himself than when we found this graduation card for me. He laughed about it for days, he says. I opened the card from him in front of our family expecting it to be heartfelt and sweet. I could not figure out why he was laughing so hard when I was reading the front. As I first starting reading I thought it sounded fine and then as my eyes scrolled the page I saw Barack Obama's face. Classic. He was able to find me a Barack Obama graduation card from Hallmark's Mahogany line. I understood then why he was so proud of his find. We all just laughed and laughed because as I read the card out loud I added in parts about "ruining a fine country takes hard work" and so on. I laughed especially hard at Jackson's addition to the card, "Your President and I are both very proud of you." Seriously. Hilarious. It was absolutely better than any heartfelt card could ever have been. ;) Score one for Jackson. I love silly cards.

I'll post more about graduation soon. There will be a TON of photos to share.
