Best Shot Monday

I had something really fun happen today. I even took a picture so I could share it for my Best Shot Monday!!! I didn't think I was going to be able to play along this week, because I didn't taken any pictures! Can you believe that?

The theme for this week was for "what brightened your day." For those of you that don't really know me, I have an abnormal (lol) obsession with Abraham Lincoln. I think he was totally ahead of his time, and just amazing. He is a hero of mine. When I was 10, I had an Abraham Lincoln bedroom! Yes, I did!!! Anyway, tomorrow is Abe's 199th birthday, and look what happened to me at work today!!! Sorry for the bad quality, but it was taken with my cell phone. (I even got Abe's business card...how's that for cool???)

That's really cool. I've always really liked Abe, though perhaps not enough to have an "Abe bedroom." I wish my kid (the 12 1/2 year old) would be that interested in some aspect of history. He's very intelligent and a wonderful kid, but he doesn't seem to focus on any one thing -unless you count video games. And we really limit those.

I'm not a huge Abe fan (but not opposed...just not a history buff), but seeing him the flesh (someone else's even) would be super cool!

What a great surprise for you!

He sure has aged pretty good. Doesn't look a day over 197.

Oh cool! Back in my previous life as a 1st grade teacher, our students would have loved to have Abe visit our school!
