There's no doubt, we are living in interesting and even scary times right now. I think we are all wondering what is in store for us and our familes in the months and years to come. I am feeling hopeful and excited to witness this historical moment in time. I remember the feeling I had when the first man walked on the moon, even when Mark McGuire hit the record breaking homerun, but this moment in time is absolutely at the very top of my list of historical moments. As a country, we have come so far. I've been saving clippings, writing down my feelings and am going to store it in this album to share with my sons and one day, my grandchildren, and hopefully they will in turn share it with their families. This is exactly why I started scrapbooking so many years ago, so that I could share a part of myself with those I love. I want them to know who I am, and when I am no longer here, who I was.
I think whether we are a Republican or Democrat, to witness this event will be a memory we will be sharing with loved ones for many years to come.
Here's to Hope, because that is the word that comes to mind as I'm watching President Elect Obama being sworn in right at this moment.
