| 13. I've already told the family that I will be crying most... |
|
of the day or more.
I keep remembering the struggles honest, hardworking Americans of all persuasions have been through
and I just vacillate between being angry at what we've been through and crying in anticipation and relief
for our future.
But most of all I cry with joy for my grand-babies' future.
