These pictures make me both sad and proud. What a time it is for those who lived through school integration.

They'll be asking why the Obamas aren't drinking water out of the tap and why aren't they using Jergens soap from the Dollar Store instead of bottled water and organic soap.

Jill…
I am a TV news producer in Washington, DC trying to reach you. I sent an email to your gmail address but it got kicked back as undeliverable.
Would you mind getting in touch with me so I can explain my desire to talk with you/

They'll blame her for using it…they'll demand that in these hard economic times the Obamas use Dixie Plates…wait..no, the cheaper kind that you get from the Dollar Tree..and save on the water bill at the White House.

We are witnessing history in the making. I think it's easy to take this for granted sometimes – with a 24 hour cable news cycle and seemingly a new c(n)ontroversy everyday.

But a picture like this is humbling. Truly inspirational. I really mean it. . . we'll probably see that picture of Sasha in history books 15-20 years from now.

Powerful stuff!
