Moving on

We're happy. We're well. We have a good job and a good home and we're just fine. I'm almost positive that this can't be taken away from us. It took a day to really have this settle in and I have come to terms and have great hope that it'll be okay.

My one prevailing thought after the election of Barack Hussein Obama has been: "So this is how everyone else has been feeling for the past 6/7 years with George Bush." Now it's my turn to feel the burn.

On Wednesday morning when I told the kids who won the presidential election, they were funny. They all said they wished it had been McCain. Then throughout the day, out of the blue, Samy would come out and say (almost in tears), "Mom, I really wish John McCain was our President". Then another time she said, "Well, at least John McCain is the President in my class!" Yes he is Samy, and I'm sure he would be proud to know that he won by a landslide (10/2) in your Pre-K class election in small-town Texas!

In listening to talk radio (yes, I'm an old lady! Remember being in the car with your parents and the radio was on AM!?!), of coarse they were upset the day after. One woman called in to one of the shows and said: "Well, God let this happen for a reason. So He is in charge and we need to have faith and trust in Him."

I thought that was very nice. It makes sense.

God also allows earthquakes, tsunamis, tornadoes, and hurricanes to happen. But whatever.
