Your Dad could do anything...and of course all of this is because of him shooting your mom's targets. He was a wonderful person as is your sweet mom.

Today I was honored to be in the audience as 21 WASP from Texas were honored by our Texas Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison-- who was the original lead sponsor for Senate Bill S.614-- which has now been SIGNED INTO LAW, awarding ALL the WASP the Congressional Gold Medal.

What a fabulous tribute to the WASP!!!! They are finally a recognized, honored part of history. All these years, she's just been "Mom" with some oddball stories that are going down in family history. Far too many are already gone - I'm so pleased and proud she was able to see this day.
