The White House addition
CNN Political Ticker: All politics, all the time - Blogs from CNN.com
I LOVE it that the Obamas are making the White House kid-friendly for their family. It is refreshing to have a young family in the White House. Hopefully they will better understand what it is like to raise a family!!!
