History
This inauguration was definitely history in the making! I wouldn’t have missed the entertainment and this great time in history for nothing! Of course it would have been wonderful to be there in person, but I think the journalist did a great job of bringing the feel of the crowd and the feel of the monumental moment to our own living room. Here are my 3 H thoughts on the event:
From The Heads
Ms. Franklin sung her little head off to her “special version” of Let Freedom Ring! But the hat on her head was a definite conversation piece. No doubt this had to be planned and if it wasn’t it should have been for underlying meanings! My initial reaction was, “what a cute bow hat!” But then I thought the hat was just an improved version of a now iconic woman on a condiment bottle my daughter loves to poor over her pancakes for breakfast...improvement is grand!

To The Hands
I loved the new first lady’s dress but who in the heck picked-out those ugly green gloves she wore on her hands with that beautiful mustard color dress? It destroyed the whole look and credibility of her style.
Like the hands from most fidgety 10 year olds, Obama's daughter Malia’s hands stayed very, very busy.....videoing and taking pictures of her father the whole time. I was very impressed with her maturity and interest in capturing every moment of her father’s success. The next journalist in the making mark my words!
The cellist, Yo-Yo Ma, had hands that could master anything! In my opinion, this was the best entertainment aside from the heart felt speech and the look on Obama’s face as he walked down the hall to enter the National Mall.
For Our Hearts
Witnessing the large sea of people at the National Mall was defiantly monumental and heart stopping ...photography perfect!
Despite trying to keep a stoic look, while walking through the hall, to make his way out to the crowd at the National Mall, Obama exposed his emotions and how he felt on the inside. I could see the seriousness in his heart and it wasn’t hard to predict the outline and outcome of his heart felt speech to our battered but never broken Americans.
Go America!!
