Finally... America is moving in a direction of change!

We woke up this morning to snow on the ground outside our Lethbridge basement suite window. Just enough to make it all look sparkly and clean. Thank goodness for Mama's many quilts! Plus the thought that Obama REALLY was the new President Elect of my America... it was a thrilling and beautiful thought! His speech last night made me so proud to claim my nationality in a neighboring country. I recall my travels in Europe and Africa where I claimed Canadian citizenship just to avoid the inevitable harrassment and questioning. Today I am an American with pride and hope for the future! I've had a few friends joke that now really is a bad time to have left the country....haha... but what a trade I have made; to have Ed wake me with a kiss every morning, to have my life as a blank slate ahead of me, to feel like this love of mine is just beginning...yes, I know I'm right where I should be!
