Beach Time

Tonight we went to the big beach park to play volleyball, as is our custom on Wednesday nights. It was my night to play with the little one while Jeff kicked butt on the court.
We had a great time playing in the sand, especially throwing rocks into the water. Matthew would throw the rocks and I would retrieve them. He has me well trained.
Every now and then, Matthew would turn around and point to his papa. I don't mind not playing most of the time because watching the chaos of amateur volleyball is almost as much fun as playing.

Great Man

Tonight I will sleep more soundly than I have in months, knowing that I great man has won the opportunity to do great things for our world. I hope his graciousness will teach us all to focus on our common goal: a better world for our children.

"And to those Americans whose support I have yet to earn, I may not have won your vote tonight, but I hear your voices. I need your help. And I will be your president, too."
