Now, for the first time that I know of, a descendant of Eli and Sofia has been invited to the White House! The honoree is my 4-year-old grandson, Reynold Vake Blaine Martin. Technically, he won a lottery along with several thousand others, and was invited to the annual Easter Egg Roll. Still, he had to pass his security clearance. He happens to be a good Democrat, being so entranced by Barack Obama that he even thinks that his blonde, blue-eyed Uncle Brook looks like Barack Obama. However, he might have spent too much time listening to his conservative relatives, because he thought he was going to the White House for a hand-out—he expected to receive a train. He did us proud: When his class was called upon to roll their eggs, he swatted his like it was a golf ball, and won the heat.
