Found out today I got tickets to the inauguration!!!
Got a call from my Congresswoman's office today that I got 2 tickets. I am going to pull my daughter out of school for a couple of days and head up to DC.

4. It's a DISGRACE that you're taking your daughter out of school...
..what about her education??

I have a better idea - leave her in school and bring me instead. :-)

8. That sounds like a wonderful thing to do for your daughter. I remember
when the Queen signed the Canadian Constitution in Canada. Was such a special momment for me in my youth. I went with my dad.

10. not sure she understands the enormity of it
She is 8 years old and I am not sure she understands the enormity of it yet. Her aunt (my brother's wife) is mixed race and i am going to have her sit down with my daughter and explain to my daughter what it means to her and her father's family.
