Yes He Can...I hope!


Wow! I don't know what else to say but, wow... As I lay in bed with Corey at my side, watching Obama accept his new presidential elect status, I couldn't help but think about Corey's future. What is the world going to be like in 20 years? Will Corey get a good education? Will he be able to go to college? Will we be able to afford to send him to college? Will he be drafted for a war? Will the economy be steady? So many questions are going through my head. As I watched Obama give his acceptance speech, it struck me that he's not elated to be President. He knows he's up against the toughest fight of his life. He knows he has millions of people expecting change and growth. He accepted the vote as a new challenge, not a victory. That kinda scares me, but it also makes me feel that he's not just in this to prove a point or make history. He's ready for the challenge. Lord I hope he is! What a night...
