Blogging Thibodaux grandmother attracts national attention

The Huffington Post and now the Daily Comet. Tomorrow the world!

Yes, that's the indefatigable and undefeatable Mimi.

We're very proud of you and I, for one, don't think fame will spoil you, Mimi.

And isn't it silly that people act as though being a grandmother means one must be boring or feeble or conventional? Sigh.

Not sure I like the title...

Gumbo Granny Blogs From the Bayou for Obama

That heads Georgianne Nienaber's article at Huffington Post. It is about our beloved Grandmère Mimi and I think it captures her spirit and honors her rather well. Force of nature is a phrase I think of also when pondering Mimi.

Speaking for myself, I am very pleased to have known you online and been blessed to meet you in person, Grandmère. May you blog in great health and with great satisfaction for a long time to come!

PS: I do expect you will hold Obama's feet to the fire. We'll all be happy to pitch in and help.
