Whether or not you voted for Obama, whether or not you voted at all, you witnessed history in the making on Tuesday. America has spoken and we’ve chosen to bring change to this country. For this first time ever we have proved that you don’t have to be rich, white, and an old guy to be President of this country. Despite your views and feelings on the matter, and whether or not you support our President-elect, you can’t refute the facts. Change has come to this country, finally, after a long overdue wait. I think that the CNN add campaign actually summed it up pretty well:

"There is a moment. A simple moment before history gets recorded. Before it goes in the books. Before it appears as a question on a game show. Or a midterm exam. A moment right before the headline is written. There is a moment when history lives in the present. When we can watch it unfold in real time. Right before our eyes. And we can assume our place in it. Some people live for history. We live for the moment just before."

I for one, am celebrating the progress. For me, for my family and friends, for our country, and most especially for my unborn child. May she witness many more moments like this one in her lifetime.
