gabby giffords plans to go to washington this week, just as the senate will be emersed in debate over legislation. dana bash sat down with giffords and her husband, mark kelly, for an exclusive interview. they talked about why they still own guns and campaign for universal background checks and giffords' remarkable recovery. >> reporter: what's most shocked about gabby giffords now is how much she looks like her old self-her golden locks are back, the sparkle in her eyes, the broad smile. the gabby giffords we knew before she was shot. gone is the short hair and thin frame we saw at the beginning of her recovery. but she knows she will never be the same. in your recovery process, do you want to find and discover the old gabby giffords or do you want to sort of rediscover another new gabby giffords? >> stronger. stronger, better. tougher. stronger, better, tougher. >> being with giffords it's immediately clear she understands virtually everything going on around her. she follows conversations, reacts a, off a unsolicited ideas but is still a struggle to turn her ideas into words. like

it started with incredible capable parents, now daniel webster has a pre-school onsite, and emersion program and requests on the rise. it's integrated portraya al of petrillo hill. what a san francisco family success story, we have demonstrated how a high quality, integrated public school can overcome family flight. there are a couple of articles in the chronicle that document our success. we are here to tell you that the successful model is in jeopardy. daniel webster doesn't have a viable middle school and we don't have enough seats to follow us. the way to continue our success is to make daniel webster a pre-k to 8 school but we need your help. a year-and-a-half ago we made a request to expand daniel webster. and it's been two years since we raised this decision and a decision still has not been made. the district should be able to accommodate for growth. with mayor lee's support the city is experiencing a tech boom. we need family-friendly housing and schools nearby. the housing is coming online, more than 10,000 residential units are developed over the next five years. what we d

he saw firsthand that giffords an kelly are still deeply emersed in the gun culture. >> reporter: gablys will never be the same after being shot many in the head. one thing hasn't changed, ironically her appreciation for guns. in fact target practice is still a form of fun at her mother es house. >> he's aiming for my pot. >> husband mark kelly using planting pots and water battles as targets while giffords watches, cheering him on. >> excellent. excellent. >> kelly isn't shooting with just any kind of gun. >> this is the same kind of gun gabby was shot with, a pnlt 9 mill meet glock. this when it's full holds 17. he shot 33 rounds. every round hit somebody, we think. >> how long have you had this gun. >> i gave this to gabby as a gift. >> when? >> a number of years ago. she's a gun owner. you know, she's from the west. >> still, we asked the question a lot of incredulous people would ask. really this guy sort of gets his kicks or recreation for him is shooting a gun after his wife was shot through the head? well gabby used to like shooting a gun too occasionally. >> yes. >> gabe by own

making choices in real time is the dominant predominant form of communication and entertainment and emersion. it doesn't mean that all the others go away. they can still be there. we can go to the opera. we can play softball. even if everyone is doing extreme sports and reading tweets. there's a place for these kinds of experiences. i come from the world. i'm a book person. that's where certain kinds of ideas are home. right. that's where i'm at home. so that's there. but i'm doing it with a full knowledge that the way i sell a book these days is not by saying you need this. your business is going fail if you don't get this. if you don't understand digital time you can't market to people. it's like what is that? buy this or else. read this or you're in trouble. that's the self-help book. you need this help. no. it's not you don't need this. right. but it's cool. you are allowed this. you are allowed this. you're a human being living in the 21st century. you're allowed to have time. you're allowed to have some time. and ironically the more time you take, the more time you have. it works the o
