I'm feeling very soppy right now. Our President really does seem to be a good, caring man.

Every once in a while I post a lot of photos of President Obama with children, and DUers seem to like them.

And this one is extra special. You can see the kids feel lifted up and safe with him.

He truly is "The Comforter In Chief" at times like this. I'm so glad he is our President.

And had to stop to collect himself, I was remembering all those pictures I saw, probably from your posts, and I was thinking how good he was with kids, and how they seem to lift his spirits, considering what he has to deal with on a daily basis.
