History was definitely made last night as America elected our first ever black President. It's exciting to see how far our country has come. Chris and I along with 95% of our family were devastated that Obama won the presidency. It literally made me sick. I think I am most fearful of the fact that half of America has put their hope in one man. They look to Obama as their hero, one who is going to "change the world". They'll all learn soon enough that putting their hope in man alone is only going to lead to disappointment. I am not happy at all with our new President but I'm going to put that behind and move on. He is our new leader and I will respect him. I'm just thankful that God is in control and has a plan through all of this. At the end of the day it is Him we are accountable to. My prayer is for peace and protection over this great land. God bless America.

And then we sucked out the old volcano rock and put in this fire glass fr
