"Yes We Can"

I think the image will forever be imprinted in my mind- Greg perched at the end of our bed fidgeting with excitement while I lay quietly next to him with Gracie sleeping in my arms, both smiling and fighting back tears at the same time. For weeks now Greg has paced the house grumbling nervously about his uncertainties of the world in which Gracie would grow up. And, normally optimistic I even found myself becoming quite cynical and apathetic. Yet Tuesday night restored our hope along with many others around the globe. . . and I'm sure we were not the only parents who when wondering whether or not we could finally be excited about the world in which our children will grow up responded silently with thoughts of "Yes we can. " :)
