Governor of Alaska

These days it is sometimes hard to find good politicians. I recently heard about the Governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin and have been reading more about her. Last week she gave birth to her 5th child who was born with down syndrome. Here is an article about the labor and birth of this precious child.

April 18, 2008, Anchorage, Alaska – Governor Sarah Palin and her husband Todd welcomed the arrival of their fifth child this morning. The Palins were thankful that the Governor’s labor began yesterday while she was in Texas at the Governor's Energy Conference where she gave the keynote luncheon address, but let up enough for her to travel on Alaska Airlines back to Alaska in time to deliver her second son.
Trig Paxson Van Palin was born at 6:30 a.m. and weighs six pounds, two ounces. The Governor and Trig are both doing well and resting comfortably.
The family released the following statement:
"Trig is beautiful and already adored by us. We knew through early testing he would face special challenges, and we feel privileged that God would entrust us with this gift and allow us unspeakable joy as he entered our lives. We have faith that every baby is created for good purpose and has potential to make this world a better place. We are truly blessed."
The Palins have four other children including Track, 18, Bristol, 17, Willow, 13 and Piper, 7

I hope we see more of Sarah in the future, her name has even been brought up as a running mate to McCain.
