I am watching the Cabinet form and by most accounts, we are getting a good bit of talent and we will need every bit of it. It is a group of grown ups with strong experience. And it looks as if there will be three women over fifty as members in some key positions such as Secretary of State and Secretary of Homeland Security. . . . .

The rehearsal was tonight, followed of course, by the rehearsal dinner. If tonight was any indication, tomorrow will be a blast! And, yes, the donor was present, accompanied by the woman for whom he left me and his children...his wife. . . . .

This weekend is the one that Michele has so eagerly anticipated for so many months. This weekend she will see her daughter become a married lady. This weekend Michele will be the most gorgeous mother-of-the-bride and will share in the joy with her daughter, her new in-laws, and, yes, even the "donor" (he who shall not be named)
I wish you, Michele, the most beautiful weekend and I bet I'm not alone in saying that I shall be thinking of you and will be waiting to see photos . . . .
