Inauguration

Today was beautiful. I loved his honesty, his candor. It will be good to have small children in the White House. I realized that my students will remember that they were in my class with me, making them watch, making them pay attention, making them understand when this historical moment took place. They laughed at me when I cried.

The commencement of another journey, hopefully a happier one for the USA. It has ramifications for us out in the rest of the world.

It was a very great day!

It's my understanding that he wrote his own speech. Does anybody know if that's the truth? It was a very good speech and the delivery was exceptional.

And Lil, I didn't have a class full of kids here with me but I caught myself with a tear rolling down my cheek a time or two as well.

I thought the cello, violin, and clarinet piece was breathtaking. And Aretha was well, Aretha.

I listened to as much of his speech as I could on the way in to work and I will watch all of it later when I get home.

It is a great day for the USA.
