Obama Inauguration




Eoin and I managed to catch a little of Obama's Inauguration today before we had to dash to playgroup. I know Eoin didn't get it but boy what a truly amazing day! As Europeans in America it has truly been awe inspiring to watch how much the country has changed and grown from the need for new leadership and stewardship. I hope that for our children and grandchildren and all the children of the world that this growth continues in America and shines as a beacon to the rest of the world as an example that change for the better can happen.

As Will-i-am sang last night 'It's a New Day'. I look at our son Eoin and tears fill my eyes from the overwhelming sense of hope and opportunity that there is for him.
