My son has witnessed history.

I am very proud of our country. And I am very proud of my son, who watched much of the coverage, adding up the electoral votes every so often. One of the most wonderful images was seeing Jesse Jackson in tears. And McCain's speech was very eloquent. I hope that this spirit of change actually becomes a reality of change. I hope that after living through one of the worst presidents of the United States, I can witness one of the best. I have hope.
