Dear Mr. President

Lacey, along with some other 5th graders, received the President's Outstanding Academic Achievement Certificate. She received a number of other certificates too which you can see spelled out in her letter, but the one she was the most proud of was this one signed by the President.

So......when you want to thank the President, you write him a letter, like this:

This will be going in the good ol USPS tomorrow, so let's cross our fingers and see if she gets an answer. She asked me if I thought Malia could write to her but I told her I think they are pretty strict parents and there would be thousands of kids that might want to be her pen-pal...so probably not. She agreed that was true, it might be too much to ask. = )
