"and that she couldn't talk about it much because she would start crying...."

We've been through so much, and there is hope just a couple of days away, it's overwhelming. I never thought this day would come. There were some really dark days these last 8 years. Sometimes I find myself getting a lump in my throat just thinking about it. I cry daily reading these wonderful posts about GOTV, looking at pics of all the hopeful faces, the enthusiasm...my emotions are raw.

Even if the tough times don't clear up for another couple of years (or longer), at least knowing Obama is President makes me feel a bazillion times better...and he makes ME want to be a better person along the way.

Thanks for sharing. :)
