Today is a pretty epic day for the Huckabee family.  Sarah Huckabee Sanders, youngest of our 3 children, becomes the 47th Governor of Arkansas today at noon in a swearing in ceremony on the steps of the Arkansas State Capitol.  There is no way to fully express the range of emotions I’m personally feeling watching her enter her service in an office that I had the privilege of working in for just short of 11 years.  Her move with her family to the Arkansas Governor's Mansion will mark a return to the home in which she spent a lot of her adolescent years learning places to hide.  Her 3 children will try the same stunts, no doubt, but they don’t have a chance!  She already knows where all the great hiding places are!  

Her becoming Governor is historic in that it marks the first time in American history that a daughter has followed her father in a Governor’s Office.  She is the first woman to be elected Governor in our state.  But I believe the real history is yet to be written as she will bring vision, bold ideas, and a great team of quality people to the office.  Above all, it’s my fervent prayer that she takes one piece of advice from her Dad:  “Never forget who your boss is!”  It’s not the donors who helped get you there.  It’s not the lobbyists, the legislators, the staff, or the press (certainly not!).  It’s the citizens of the state who maybe didn’t vote for you, couldn’t afford to contribute to your campaign, or have a thing they can do for you.  No matter how they dress, what they do for a living, where they live, or how much education they have or don’t have, THEY are your bosses.  Serve them.  Love them.  Pray for them daily.”

She enters with a servant’s heart and the heart of a Mom.  I’m proud of all 3 of my children, but today, it’s her special day to celebrate with her incredible husband Bryan, their 3 children Scarlett, Huck, and George, and thousands of friends from across the nation.  And her parents celebrate with her!

    You should be proud of her, but Sarah is her own woman, she learned on the lap of a Great Father but adds her own life's lessons. She proved that as Donald J. Trumps Press Secretary day in and day out. We need more like her.

    Oh, Sarah, I have been so very proud of you since the day I was introduced to you as Press Secretary. I hold you in high esteem as a truly strong woman who was meant to be our leader. Your parents obviously did a great job and you have taken that foundation to the next level. I always thought your Dad would have been one of our most successful presidents......now, I suppose it is up to you!!!

    Was so proud of your performance in the White House and so happy to see your entry into politics! I imagine that politics must be the hardest place to keep your connection with God unblocked and unpolluted so I pray for your strength and most of all that you never allow the enemy to cause you to lie to yourself! Follow Gods will moment by moment and LUCKY ARKANSAS!!
