I know this sounds funny, but, here it goes: I had to tell my son’s teacher I couldn’t come to class today because of the president.
President Obama’s visit today meant that I would be at Dobson High School all morning. My original plans were to start the day talking to my son’s kindergarten class about the job of being a journalist. Now, I have a bit more to tell them about my job. The class has been talking about “community helpers” and what jobs different people have in the world. After the presidential inauguration, the students learned about Barack Obama. I’m hoping to share the excitement of the day with them later this week.
