My 8YO son just said something beautiful about Mrs. Dunham.
When we told him that Barack Obama's grandmother had just died and as we watched it on the news, he said "I hope that when she gets to heaven she shakes hands with Mom-Mom and they become friends".

This little boy never ceases to amaze me, and he gave both ChicaAzul and I a big lump in our throats.

Just wanted to share.

PEACE (and VICTORY)!
