To our 44th Prez

Today we stayed home and watched, with great pride, the inauguration. We wanted to watch it online so it would be in english but we couldn't get a good feed so we ended up franticly looking for a good news channel that would let him (the Prez) speak first and then they would translate. We loved that it was short and sweet! Mostly because I don't know how much we could take of the awful translation! We were both so proud. Not only because it's a milestone for the United States as well as the world but because President Obama is a man that we will stand up for and have a few times here. We know that problems won't be fixed over night but we also feel that President Obama will have our best interests at heart.

So, we hope that today, while watching, you stepped back and thought about how thankful you are to living in a country where change will, can, and has happened. And in the words of a great orator, "The intelligence of a few can do great good for the hearts of many." (quote by Jay!)
