Dear Brooks & Audrey,
Today is an historic day in our country. Barack Obama was just sworn in as our nation's 44th President. Audrey watched with Mommy and was particularly enchanted by hearing the music played before the new president's oath of office. Brooks came in with Chantho while the President was speaking and said "That's Obama!"
Especially today, Mommy is very proud to be an American. We live in a country where you can be anything you want to be if you work hard and live with kindness and respect for others. Some have said that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream was realized today, and in part, I agree. I think there is still work to do to ensure fairness and respect for all members of our society, but I have great hope that you will be part of making that dream come true.
Love,
Mommy
