Meeting the Governor



Here I am doing something I never dreamed I would have the opportunity to do--I am meeting the Governor of Kansas, Sam Brownback.  Well, I actually had met him  once before--before he was elected on his bus tour around the state, but I never dreamed I would get to meet him in his ceremonial office in the State Capital building.    I was thrilled to have the opportunity to meet him, get to talk about my platform, and thank him for my appointment to the State Rehabilitation Council.
I also had the amazing opportunity to be a proud parent, while my daughter received her Read Across Kansas award certificate from the governor and state librarian.  What an honor!!!  This will be a day not quickly forgotten.
My service dog letting everyone know that I belong to him!!
Thankful thoughts for today:
Adults learning what the youth are learning
Story Telling
Friends
Quiet time

    It was a pleasure meeting with you and your daughter in my office. I am very thankful to have met you and spoken with you about your platform as Ms. Wheelchair Kansas. Tell your daughter to keep up the great reading and best of luck to you and your daughter in the future!
