Apparently most of these people don't age.

What you wrote the President:

Hi,

Two weeks ago, President Obama asked you to write and tell him how you're doing. And I can tell you, as one of the people who helps sort through the mail here at the White House, that a lot of you answered.

You told us how you're feeling about your family, your community, and our country. You shared stories about what's been going well, and what you wish was better.

So if you were wondering if those letters actually get read, the answer is yes.

Your stories paint a broader picture of how things have changed these past few years, and I wanted to share a few of them. Here's what folks had to say.

"I guess I can tell you about myself now. I am a 26-year-old single mother. My son is the light of my life. We live in a small city called Anacortes, located in Skagit County, Washington. It's beautiful here. A lot of the people that live here were raised here, and they have family and friends all around town. For me, it's just my son and I. His father was born and raised here, and the majority of his family is located here, too. We separated shortly after my son's first birthday, though. ... I've had to do a lot of fighting to get where I am now, and I feel like I have so much more to do. I think you know what that feels like."
-- Desirae, Anacortes, WA

"My family is doing OK - we all have jobs, we have health insurance, we have homes and cars. I am the director of a nonprofit ... and my concern is for the people we serve. There are so many older adults who are alone, who need a meal, who need much more than we can provide. We struggle to feed the people who need help, and the need for our assistance is growing. … As a nation, how do we help the people who were there for us? How do we absorb this enormous responsibility?"
-- Gale, Durham, NC

Read more from those letters here.

Your letters mean so much to everyone here, President Obama included. That's one reason why he's spending time with people like Rebekah, a letter writer he met in Minneapolis in June, and why, this week, he's spending time with folks like you who've written him in Denver and Austin.

As the President has said, even though unemployment is the lowest it's been since 2008 and the economy is adding jobs at a rate we haven't seen since the 90s, we still have a lot more work to do -- too many are still struggling to get ahead.

Every letter we get -- every story -- matters. And that's why, all this summer, the President will be talking about ways this administration is working to make a difference in peoples' lives.

Thank you,

Fiona

POTUS, Pizza, and Pool in Denver

President Obama is back on the road again, getting out of the bubble of Washington to talk about the economy and meet with working Americans who've written to tell him about what's going on in their lives.

He's currently in the middle of a three-day trip, visiting folks in Colorado and Texas -- and we'll be keeping you updated on what he's doing.
