Hope

Rosa sat
so that
Martin could walk
so that
Obama could run
so that
our children can fly!!

What an amazing night. I wish my children could have stayed awake to see it. I wish I had been in Chicago on the grass in Grant Park with all those people. But even in my own home, in my own bed lying next to J with tears streaming down my cheeks, I felt it. Hope. We did it!!!
