Ava’s favorite thing to say whenever Dave and I are talking about something is, “Whachha talkin’ bout Mama?”. Dave was showing me this video and she wanted to know “What they talkin’bout Mama?”. I said, “Just talking about our country, America, and what it means.” Blank stare. Hmmmm, don’t think that resonated just yet???

I know this video is pretty “Hollywood” (yes, Brett). But, you have to admire the speech and the message. Whoever you are voting for, I hope that your candidate inspires you. We all know that every politician promises things they can’t deliver. But hopefully, they inspire US to deliver. To do our own dirty work, make changes in our own lives, become the citizens that we need to be to see the changes we want, demand the things that will better our lives and the lives of our children. Sometimes words are the greatest weapon of all. And how exciting is it that either way, we will be making history this year?
