2. K&R! Congratulations to two national treasures!

I've been listening to Jimmy Carter's autobiography "A Full Life" on audio disc - read by the author himself - and he really has led a full - and pretty amazing life. I think it wasn't until disc #5 that he ran for president, LOL. And Rosalynn, as well as their kids, have been with him all the way. She was initially rather shy, but during his Navy career she was on her own a lot and gained confidence - and it turns out that she was good at - and really enjoyed - managing his initial campaigns. They also grew up very near each other, she was a friend of his sister's. When there was a new baby in the neighborhood, the Carters went to call on the family, and little Jimmy was one of the first to peek into her crib when Rosalynn was a baby...
