Olivia first learned of Abraham Lincoln presenters—notice I didn’t say impersonators—from the terrific documentary titled “Being Lincoln: Men with Hats.” The child herself has dabbled in some Lincoln presenting, most notably
a couple Halloweens back. When I learned that there would be a Lincoln presenter at a local historical society home on this anniversary of our 16th president’s birthday, I jumped at the chance to take her to meet her historical hero. She, too, jumped at the opportunity, donning her Lincoln outfit and with her presidential action figure in hand.
She and her friend Lucy got to interact with Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln. To say she was over the moon would be an understatement—try over the moon of a planet in some faraway galaxy. The experience was enhanced by, of course, some Abe-licious cake at the end of the meet-and-greet.
