Today was by a day that will forever be in my mind. There are two topics that I never discuss in an open forum: politics and religion. I've always limited my comments on those topics because everyone is emotionally attached to their personal beliefs. I definitely don't appreciate anyone telling me that I wrong for believing what I believe therefore I refrain from doing the same. With all that being said, I have to say that I am very excited that our 44th President is Barack Obama. I am very hopeful that things are going to be different under this Administration. I believe the difference is going to brought about because everyone came together to make it happen. Long gone are the days of the "ole heads" running stuff...my generation and those who have come after me are speaking up and making a difference. It seems only natural that since we came out together to elect our President, we are going to support him and all that he attempts to do.
I also can't help but think of how my future children's lives will be affected by our new President. Long gone are the days of only having African American athletes for children to aspire to be like or model themselves after. Don't get me wrong, it's ok for kids to want that but it's even better to have a living example to show that it IS possible to be the President if you are a young black male (or female). I am very hopeful!
In other news, Kevin, Bentley, and I had our very first snow day together. That was fun!!! We took some family photos outside and even had a mini snow ball fight. The funny part of all of this is Bentley was not happy we kept her outside so long. She really hates being outside for long periods of time. Enjoy the pics!
