A Gift from the White House

Yesterday, I went to pick up a package and was a little puzzled to see that Persephone had received a package from the White House. Hmmm. . . what is this girl up to while we sleep? Inside was a letter from Mr. Bush himself. Here is what it said:

Dear Persephone:

Welcome to your new home! Your arrival has brought great joy to your proud family.

As you grow, I encourage you to help your neighbors, set high standards, and follow your dreams. Your kindness to others and commitment to excellence can strengthen your community and our Nation.

Mrs. Bush and I send our best wishes to you and your parents. May the coming years be filled with happiness, health and much love.

Sincerely,
George W. Bush

(We got this letter as a gift from a friend who works as a speech writer for the Bush administration. He used his connections. I think we're going to hang it in Persy's "room" as a reminder of her importance! :)
