Sec State Clinton Comes to Visit

On July 20, 2011, Marcus and I took Desmond to meet Secretary Clinton.  I am not sure it would be something we would repeat.  We waited 2+ hours inside and 1++ hours outside in the 115 degree heat for her arrival.  When she came, she made a very nice speech, took a picture with the kids and then left.  I was standing right next to her and said hello but didn't shake her hand as I was under the impression she was going to shake hands afterwards.  So, I was happy to have Desmond with us for the picture or else we would of been there for many hours just to see her and not actually meet her.
Desmond was a trooper! Only at the very end did he finally let us know he was hot, hungry, and tired... with a dirty diaper.  He barely made it to the crib before passing out for his nap.
