Not quite baby kissing - but close

In a total politician and baby moment yesterday, Anja was lucky enough to get a tickle on the head from John Kerry. We went down to a big rally to hear John Kerry speak with Howard Dean. We were waaaaaay in the back (technically outside of the event) but that paid off because it also happened to be where his motorcade was loading. He went along and was shaking hands of the crowd and doing the "campaign trail tango" as I like to call it. Axel and Anja were across the street from the rest of us because Axel had to take Anja to go potty and couldn't get back to where we were. Turns out they were in the right spot because just before he got into his car (which had followed him as he walked down the road) he went to the corner where Axel held Anja up on his shoulders and John Kerry (who is quite tall) tickled her head. lol. I was too far away to get a picture, darnit, but the story will definately go down in the lore of her childhood! As I was telling Dylan and Kiah - The next President of the United States tickled Anja's head!
