What does it mean to me that Barack Obama is our next President? I know that everyone is entitled to their own opinion that is why we have the Freedom of speech. I think that either candidate would have a lot of challenges to face in order to get our Country back on track. All we can do now is hope and pray that Barack Obama can do the job. But it has a special meaning to me that doesn't have any political meaning to it.
Now I want you to look at this picture. What this means to me is that my Son, my Hero, and my Guardian Angel NOW can look into the future and if he wants to be President of the United States it is possible because of the American people. That he will not be judged by the color of his skin. He can see that anything is possible for him and his generation to achieve any goal they want. Joshua is amazed at the fact that we have a new President who is the same as him and for that I am truly greatful to the American People who didn't judge Obama for this color of his skin, but looked at what he represented which was change. During Barack Obama's acceptance speech last night I was brought to tears just watching and listening to him and thinking of these children:I love each and everyone of these faces, they mean the world to me. They are our next generation and for their hopes and dreams to have no limits just brings tears to my eyes. I am truly proud to be an American and want to personally thank everyone who has made it possible for my children to have the same hopes and dreams as the next. I think that the country is learning that we are all the same on the inside.

Thank you for reading my thoughts,
