how lovely to be reminded of the civility and grace that public service should entail–as always, what a beautiful post.

Thank you so much for your lovely comment, Kathleen! My husband wanted me to mention in the post that they met at Emory, his alma mater as well! (I couldn’t find the right spot.) xo

I am so proud to know these two exceptional individuals since college days. Their goodness of heart and character was obvious to all, even at such a young age. Tennessee is lucky to have them!

Jennifer thank you for a glimpse of our Governor and First Lady featuring their interests, projects and yes their love of books! The work they are doing in higher education, museums and reading help millions of people in our state.

This series has been fun for me too. I really appreciate your kind comment and I’ll for sure run a series next summer! I’ve been thinking about a series in December as well, maybe involving holiday traditions… thank you so much for the encouragement, Amy. xo
