President Obama

Wow, what a day! It was so nice to be able to watch today's historical events. I was truly in awe of what occurred in D.C. and am excited for the future of our nation. Even if you didn't vote for President Obama, you have to feel the joy and excitement that he brings to politics and our country. There is a confidence that he has that is contagious. You can't help but think that good things are going to happen over the next 4 years. I hope and pray that he has the capability to bring our nation out of the funk we are in.

Hayden had speech therapy at 11 am, right when President Obama was being sworn in. He didn't get much therapy done! Instead of sitting at the table, we sat on the floor in the living room watching history. Two year olds, as many may guess, don't care about history! He was not happy that we changed things around. I was also very pleased that the girls' school allowed the children to watch the events on TV. One of Anna's former teachers, according to her, was invited, but didn't attend. What an honor though!

If you missed the inauguration and speeches, please watch them online. It is worth your time to witness these events.
