Political Views Aside...

I won't get into politics here on the blog, but I just had to show what Spencer got in amongst his cards.  He was quite excited and requested it be framed (which it has). 

Additionally he received a card from Mitt's son, Tagg Romney,  and letters from Senator Mike Lee of Utah (a family friend) and Representative Gerry Connolly of Virginia (who commented on Spencer's humor).    We were hoping for something from President Obama too (which we also would have framed), so we could have a poll on which presidential nominee sent the cooler card, but I guess ruling the free world might have taken a little higher priority.  :)

Stay tuned for more highlights from the birthday card shower.

All blood cultures have come back negative, so the central line will stay in for now.
