Virginia Goes to the White House

When Virigina McLaurin turned 105 years old, she admitted that her greatest wish was to meet the president. If anyone deserves such an honor, it’s this woman, who was honored for her history of volunteer service a couple of years ago.

McLaurin is now 106, and her wish came true yesterday at the White House. She is adorably happy at the meeting, but it gets you right here when you think about what McLaurin has seen and experienced in her life since 1909. The original video is on Facebook, but I’ve never been able to embed Facebook videos properly. (via Buzzfeed)
