(To my family who isn't quite celebrating like I am, feel free to skip this post!)
My Favorite Obama Family Photo:
The morning of Tuesday, January 20th, 2009 found me in a great mood and the boys in a foul mood. Despite this, by the time we got to daycare I had them chanting in a sing-song voice, "It's Inaugu-RATION Day! It's Inaugu-RATION Day!" Finn did a little jig for his teacher & class as we hung up his coat and backpack. The song stuck in my head for days.
I really wanted to watch the Inauguration coverage live so I brought my laptop to the office to stream as I worked. Of course, the Internets were so overloaded the stream was constantly interrupted and I was forced to kick it old-school style. I watched it in the employee break room on a fuzzy TV, surrounded by friends & coworkers. We were so quiet you couldn't ignore the sniffles and could feel the underlying excitement in the room. I don't think I'll ever forget where I was when it happened.

So... it's done. It's only been a week and a day since, but some major changes have already come down the pipeline. This about sums up where my head is at:
Thanks to Major Beadhead for the video & photo links!

That is a great photo of the First Family. Can't say he was my first choice, but I can say that I think his vision for our country will bless many, and I am praying that he will leave a great mark in our nation's history! Thanks for sharing- hope you are well.
I pray for God to give him and other leaders wisdom in his decisions and safety. I already disagree with some of his decisions but I expected that.
I have never seen THAT 2nd picture. Just showed my husband.. "Are you reading blogs?" He wasn't so interested. But I was, it's a great picture.
WOW do I love that MAN! HE is my First choice, in my mind the ONLY choice to move us forward!
