Another day hovering around 90 with not a hint of rain. Swimming and Studio2 this morning. None of Vicki's students came in today, but sometimes it's like that in the summertime.
We'll be heading off to South Carolina in the morning for Sarah's graduation from Dixie High School in Due West. She's the youngest grandchild, and this will be the last one to finish high school.
I cannot let one of today's news items go without comment. It was reported that Vice President and Mrs. Cheney welcomed a new grandson today. The reporter went on to say that the proud parents were Mary Cheney and her long-time partner, Heather Poe. What a wonderful day for the parents! Yet the new baby's birth state of Virginia refuses to allow Samuel David Cheney the stability of parents with the legal standing and rights of other parents, not even allowing Ms. Poe to adopt him. I wonder how the hypocritical grandparents will be able justify this relegation of Samuel's mother to second-class status. I do not question the grandparents love of their daughter and their new grandson. But I can say Shame on them!
