So last week, my boys were visiting my parents and got to sit in the Presidential helicopter, HMX-1. They got to sit in the pilot’s seat, the co-pilot’s seat, the President’s seat, the First Lady’s seat, and the bodyguard’s seat. How cool is that?
I was at home in Michigan, sitting on my own seat.
They brought home baseball caps with the Presidential Seal on them.
“Dad,” I said, “Those are so cool. Did you get one for me, too?”
“Uh, no,” he says, “I didn’t know you wore baseball caps.”
As if. Does it even matter? I ask you: Even if you’d never worn a baseball cap in your life, wouldn’t you want one with the Presidential Seal on it?
Well I would.
My dad’s working on it.
That is so cool! My son looooooves the National Geographic TV channel documentaries on Marine One and Air Force One. They combine two of his greatest loves, aircraft and Barack Obama. (He is four.)
What a neat experience for the boys!!
How cool is that!! Sorry aboutthe hat. You have been properly de-throned by your children in your father's eyes 🙂
Seriously? That is so. very. cool. I hope you're able to get a hat!
Executively speaking, that is verry cool!
That. Is. So. Awesome. Gosh, what does your dad do?
And I'd definitely be mad that I didn't get a hat! 🙂
A little late in reading this blog, enjoyed it and memories of the visit – and, did you ever receive your hat? If not, birthday's an opportunity ; ) L,M
