Inauguration Day

This is a once in a lifetime kind of day. This is the kind of day that, fifty years from now, you remember exactly where you were and what you were doing. It is the kind of day that has the potential to set straight some wrongs from the past and to drastically affect the future of not only our country, but the world.

So as we watched the inauguration of President Barack Obama and drank in the history as it poured out before us, my 4 year old had this to offer:

"Can I pleeeaaase have a peanut butter and jelly sandwich?"

Such is life, isn't it? The grand moment and the reality of everyday inextricably connected. I love it.

Peace.
