Happy Inauguration Day!!

I said the pledge of allegiance this morning for the first time in years. I grew up during the Bush administration and for the first time since I was old enough to actually understand the emotion, I'm proud to be an American.

♥♥♥ This is such a beautiful post, Aja, and I really so strongly identify with every word. :( ♥

I hope we will view that, not as our responsibility to each other, but as the honor we have as Americans, to live and be free, in a gracious, tolerant, and endlessly hope-filled country.

;____; YES YES YES YES YES.
