the boy and i went for a drive at 1 in the morning, on the lookout for obama signs that were peppered on the highway - there wasn't a single one of them left :)

i can't stop crying - i just can't stop.
I am overwhelmed by what our world did yesterday, by what it has become today.
There is a sense that nothing, absolutely nothing, is unreachable anymore. that idealism can pave the way for a better tomorrow.
there are so many moments in time that i hold dear this year - my wedding day when the boy & i were together after a long hard struggle
and this day - when the boy & i woke to a new day where limitless hope abounds.
