it's been a few days since the inauguration, but i wanted to write about how excited i am to have Obama be our new president. i am so proud to have witnessed him take the oath and i shared the experience with my littlest one, M. we watched it from the comfort of our home and even made some cupcakes to celebrate. my husband and oldest couldn't stay home with us, but he listened to npr on his way to work while C watched with her classmates in school. my children were able to see history in the making, even if they don't quite understand how having the first black president in our country is so important. i'm also glad that we recorded it so that we can watch it all over again and maybe a few years from now, my girls will better understand the great significance this election has had in our country.
i honestly have to say that i have restored hope for our country.
