Where were you?


My friend blogged about a 'where were you moment' on President Barack Obama 2009 Inauguration Ceremony.

I have to say from early in the morning (and with a newborn I mean early ~ no light out at all) I was glued to the T.V. for this exciting event. When it was finally time for the official inauguration and address at noon I was still glued to the T.V. with my friend Kristan over visiting the girls. It was a truly inspirational speech!
Gabe watched it later with the girls (thanks to DVR.)

I'm so excited for this new journey with President Obama.

"This is the journey we continue today. We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth. Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began. Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year. Our capacity remains undiminished. But our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisions -- that time has surely passed.
Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America." ~Barack Obama
