I looked at my little ones this morning after they woke up......we told them who won (they were wayyyy too tired to stay up) and they cheered and danced.....and knew that someday, they could be standing where Obama was last night. Not hoped, wished, or wanted, but knew. I voted for him not because of the color of his skin, but because of what I believe he can do for us. I have hope now, and hope is a powerful thing - especially in our house at this time in this economic **** hole I feel we are in. I cried, I smiled, I slept like a baby. I have hope again, and hopes that my girls - all of my girls - can grow up and do whatever they put their minds to.
