We put out our flag. I think we were the only ones in the neighborhood that did.
We colored during the speeches,
And listened to Obama's speech twice, because Princess had to miss it for her piano lesson ("PLEASE tape the rest for me!").
We had a parade during the parade.
We wore patriotic clothes (Princess picked a shirt says 'free' on it).
We listened to NPR later in the car, and at every mention of the president the boys would shout "OBAMA! They said OBAMA! That's our NEW president!"
I really wanted my children to be involved in this historic day. Hopefully they'll remember it.
I know I will!
