She's a natural

Sylvie was the star attraction at her dad's campaign kick-off yesterday morning at Holliston Town Hall. These photos are courtesy of Dad's pal, professional photog Tom Fitzsimmons (who is excellent for event photography, if you happen to be in the area).

This first one is of Syl being introduced to Bobby Blair, the "Mayor of Mudville." Bobby is quite a guy - he makes the national news a couple of times a year these days for the very moving (and time-consuming) telephone pole tribute he puts up to fallen soldiers on Memorial Day and Veterans' Day.

Here's Sylvie meeting retiring Representative Paul Loscocco, on hand to give her Dad his very kind endorsement.

Dad shamelessly exploiting his daughter as he gives his kick-off speech.

The family.

And what's a campaign kick-off without a little PAIN!?!?


The Metrowest Daily News ran a good article, and HopNews.com was kind enough to put up the following video (which is even more painful for dad to watch than was Sylvie's attention to his hair).
