May God bless & protect President Obama, his family, and the beautiful United States of America

It's a new day. A dream realized and many more dreams to come. I have always been proud to be an American, but something about today really, really strikes a deep cord in my soul.

.

So many backs beaten and bloody. Doors have been slammed. Educational rights locked away all for one reason and one reason only... Ignorance.

.

Now we stand up head high, backs straighten. Doors taken off the hinges. Educational right a little more balance all for for one reason and one reason only... Light.

.

We move from ignorance to light. Day by day we will be better. We will do better. We have a responsibility to do right.

.

This is my America. My country. My home. I am proud.

.

I support Barack Obama and I vow to be a better American in humanity and helping this great man accomplish the awesome task that is set before him in any way that I can.

It touched my heart when my little son watched the ceremony with me. I stepped away to get my camera. I wanted to capture the moment, but what I got was so much more then just a moment. My little son had sat down on the floor in front of the TV and didn't notice that I was not back and I saw him touch the screen and heard him say, "Barack Obama, he's a nice man."

Aiden just waved his flag in fierce celebration and I would like to think PRIDE.
