One thing I have noticed about President Bush and Laura is they try to physically get down to a child's level.

I had a day care center for almost 6 years. When the sweet ones came to me asking a question, I would kneel to look at them eye to eye. OTOH, when discipline was needed, there was no kneeling. They understood.

I miss them..immensely.

Thanks for the dose! It is a wonderful counterpoint to some of the arguments I have elsewhere defending the President!

You're welcome, and yes, I agree. Photos like these are a wonderful counterpoint -- and antidote -- to the rough stuff elsewhere.

That is a lovely photo (the last one)

Grin...you know me. A sucker for photos of GWB and babies. Sigh.

I think the one of the baby in a diaper is funny (obviously whenever it was taken, it was a hot day).

You must have been reading my mind, because I was going back over the photos and thinking the same thing. Having been a teacher, I can understand Laura doing that, but GWB seems to do it intuitively. I'm not sure if that's typical of most men -- to try to get down to a child's level.

Now you come to mention it I think I do remeber the one of Laura with the child in the bed but I certainly do not remember the others with Barney on the ground.

You know me and animals...I'm sure you're right about those. I don't think they were on the Dose before.

BTW, the kittens are three months old. They are sleeping at my feet as I type this. :)

I think it is for men who truly love children I have a male friend and he will do this with children.

LOL! Yes, and the President was obviously laughing, so someone will have to explain to the child that GWB was not laughing at him, but just from sheer joy.

It's nice to see when a man genuinely enjoys kids.

I took some photos on the day they turned 3 months. Will send you the links when I scan them.

And .. he also waited until his staff could gather more information about the event before speaking to the world.

Unlike the dems who run around saying "the sky is falling" - details at 11 - the President used common sense and waited to find out what was really going on!

Hi CyberAnt. SO good to "see" you. How are you doing?

You're absolutely right. The Dims are all about image and not about substance at all. With GWB, it's just the opposite.
