Jack was at our house again today but listening to Polka records and playing with plastic wind-up toys hardly compares with watching the helicopter take a former President away and see the new President take over. Jack is only 2 and my first memory of a Presidential election was when Franklin Roosevelt defeated Herbert Hoover in the fall of 1931. In some ways, this inauguration has some similarities to that one. We had just come through the stock market crash of '29 and the country was looking for change. I don't know how Roosevelt ranks in the list of "our best Presidents" but we can only hope and pray that historians will someday be able to say that President Trump brought about as much change for the good of our Country as Roosevelt. There is no doubt but what Jack will someday, have some ideas about the changes.
