It's Been a Long Time Coming...

...but change has come to America!

Nola and momma watched the inauguration today (daddy watched at work). Nola has just recently learned to wave and clap, but it was Mom who jumped up and down like a little kid. Has there ever been more hope for the country in our lifetime, despite seemingly insurmountable problems? Obama makes us all believe that we *can* overcome whatever faces us, not someday, but now.

We are proud to be early followers, proud to be Chicagoans, and proud to be Americans.
