Wednessday morning my wife and I will have an opportunity to meet Pres. Bush. We received our first phone call from the White house on Thursday last week. This morning, the official arrangements were made.
We will be meeting "W" at Air Force One and get his picture taken with him at the base of the plane right on top of the seal of the President. Time permitting, we will be invited to ride with him in his limo.
Why the visit? My wife and I do quite a bit of volunteer work with kids with cancer and even started our own organization four years ago called Home of Their Own (or HoTO). HoTO provides isolation housing for kids who are undergoing bone marrow transplants. President Bush has made a big effort to acknowledge volunteer organizations since 911 and fealt that we deserved some attention.
Should be a real exciting day and will be great attention for our cause.

Congratulations on your fine work with the children suffering from cancer. A very worthy charity and the attention from President Bush certainly will help spread the word.
The visit with the president should be an exciting time and I not only hope it goes well but that you post again, afterwards, and give us the details and any photos you might wish to share.
Good luck!
