Inauguration Day

Well, today we had the whole world watching us, as we welcomed our 41st President.  I did record everything for the kids to watch.  And it was cool to see all of the places in Washington DC, since, I've been there.  It also confirmed to me that when Colton has his 6th grade trip, we will be taking him to DC.  
Well, the kids all watched the ceremony on TV at school.  I was a little surprised that even Lauren  watched it, I mean will she as a kindergartner remember it?  I did think it was very cool to see our entire country come together, and to see many people hopeful.  I think in addition to being hopeful, that there is a new generation of people who will now be involved with politics and policies.  Which that is a good thing.  I try so hard to explain to the kids that we are blessed to live in a country where we have choices.  I think it's awesome to see the books in both English and History that Austin is reading.  For some strange reason, he's reading a lot of Communist books, or books that were written in that era.  
 We will be closely watching every decision that President Obama makes.  
Best of Luck to President Obama
