The U.S. is in too much of a mess to receive a fix overnight! Hey, I guess the start is now, O-B-A-M-A !

He was a bit ticked and said, “ok…there are just some darker people then that have been the President.” Made me laugh…he just didn’t want to give it up that he was wrong. Not to mention he is my dark skinned angel of the group. Love the things that kiddos say

But when Aretha came on the screen, my twitter was, “Oh, Aretha. That hat.”

My favorite was seeing those millions of people, all wanting a piece of the history. That and the discussion between my kids about what the heck the plan was if it rained.

Good meeting you at Cindy’s today!

But I was so amazed at the sea of people who were there in 30 degree weather waiting in great anticipation for this great day in history. I did not vote for President Obama either. But I am hopeful for what is to come. And I really enjoyed seeing him dance with his wife. You can tell they are united in this dream and are very much in love. And I do have to say that even with the mess that he has made, I do have great admiration for George W. I think he is a great man!

Josesph Lowery. Both were well delievered and pointed us to the gravity of the day. Good stuff. Did not vote for him but he has my attention in a good way right now. He needs every measure of prayer offered yesterday and then some, the man has a “mess” to fix.

To know we all are created equal. BIG! I loved Laura’s peaceful elegant look even w/the wind blowing her hair! I loved the beauty of ONE NATION UNDER GOD!! Great blog and proud of JH, every time you share with us. It is priceless! ilu

Jimmy Kimmel had a spoof last night where she was singing and the bow turned into a propellar which took her up, up and away! It was funny!
That was really sweet of JH. He has such a sweet heart. We should all strive to be that way! The world would be a much happier place.
