Living to be 106 does not seem to be that new of a thought anymore.  We have already seen a 110-year-old woman who loves naps.  With the advances in medicine it is no surprise that we are starting to see more people living in their hundreds more and more often.   More importantly, some are like Virginia McLaurin who looks to be getting around on her own quite well.  She does walk with a cane, but the fact that she is walking on her own is just great.

She had a dream to make it to the White House to meet the President.  When she got to meet him and the First Lady, she was so filled with joy she couldn’t help but dance.  If I make it to 106, I can only hope to be able to walk the way me knees are now at 29.  I am glad to see that the White House was able to make this dream come true.
