History has been made!


I can not believe it. I hoped it. I wished it. I prayed for it. But I still had my doubts. Barack Obama will be the next President of the United States of America. As I listened to his speech, I thought about how many people have fought for this. I thought back to when women and minorities were not allowed to vote. I thought about how my great-grandparents and grandparents would be/are proud of this very moment. I am deeply moved. The emotions that I feel right now...I really can't explain it. It's one of the moments that I will NEVER forget and I am so proud to be a part of.
I have and will continue to pray that God gives him the strength and guidance he needs to run this country and that He continues to protect him and his family. President Barack Obama...music to my ears.
