Politics

New Day In History

I am so very excited about today. I see our country moving forward and this is going to make 2009 even better. I couldn’t have asked for a better yesterday and to see President Obama being sworn into office just makes today even special as well.

Some of you may be shocked to see me write this??? I really wanted McCain to win the election, but that is all behind us now. I will respect and pray for President Obama, just as I did President Bush. No, I may not agree to all that Obama is for, just as I did not approve all that President Bush was for, but that is no reason to put down the leader of our Nation. We need to uplift him and pray for him just as we would anyone else.

He is our President now and I just know this country will move into new directions that will shape our country to a much better country. I am excited that America has looked past the color and we can all unite and become as one. How awesome is that?

My girls and I will all be sitting in front of the TV watching his speech as this is definitely history in the making. I want my girls to be able to let their children know where they were on this wonderful historical day.

Let’s all put our virtual hands together and sing praises to his name. This will be a great year and I know my wonderful Good Lord up above will guide and direct him to where and how he needs to lead our great country the United States of America.

I’m so excited and I can’t hide it ;).

The Girls and I Voted

Did you vote yet? We did the early voting experience here in NC, so we wouldn’t have to wait in line. Hubbs went and voted for the first time in his life and my parents voted for the first time in about 20 years. I will be saying my prayers on this nice election eve that God will have his hands in this election and may he pick the one that he would like to guide us in this country!

The girls were sooooo excited to get to experience their first voting polls. Once we stepped out of our little area, I just had to snap a pict. Our stickers say “I voted”! I think its important to get your children involved and explain to them why you are voting and why did you pick your particular candidate which by the way was McCain for us :).

GO VOTE. Make your voice be heard!!!! I will be glued to the TV all day tomorrow that’s for sure.

Elections Oh My

I know everyone is probably up to their eyeballs in all this election stuff.

I just really want to say to everyone, to please stop all the slandering of either candidate and sit back and do the research you need for both candidates. Also actually take time to watch the conventions that are going on. The republican convention is going on right now. I am watching and yes, I did watch the democrat convention last week.

These emails or postings in the online world that are going around with false information is so misinforming to others that may not know to look up the information to see if it was true or false. You can go and do a quick search at www. snopes. com to see if stuff is either fact or fiction.

I have really did the research on the candidates online and offline and to align with all my beliefs, yes I am pulling for the McCain/Palin team, but I am not going to go around bashing Obama and his staff. This is our country people, lets stop the bashing and let others make their own personal choice based on their research and their beliefs.

I just want you all to do the same and vote for the best one that aligns with your beliefs and not base your vote on emails or what he said she said stuff. Also, if you are still having a problem of picking your candidate then pray about it. God really helped me with signs that I were looking for.

America does need change and if we all pull into together and make wise choices about life, we can change it one person at at time :).
