A night in history

NOVEMBER 4th 2008

Dear son:
Tonight is a very special night for our country. It is a night that years from now people will remember. I just wanted you to see where you were and what you were doing on this night.

Today your daddy and I voted. We made our voice heard for you and your unborn sibling. I don't know what the future will hold, or how this will shape it, but I have a profound hope. A hope that this election will change the course of YOUR country for the better. That your world will be a better one because of this night.

I am happy to know that you will grow up with the first African American president. That you will see boundaries crossed, and stereotypes broken. That you will see in your young childhood what many Americans never thought possible.

Be proud of our country son, and the freedoms and liberties you have as a member of it. We thank the Lord for his provision on our country, and pray that He will use this leader for great things.

This is the night that changed America.... and this is what you were doing that night.
