Description:

On January 20th, 2009, Barack Obama will be inaugurated as the 44th President of the United States.

Officials have said they expect 1-2 million visitors to travel to the National Mall on Inauguration Day.

CAN"T MAKE IT? Celebrate this historic occasion by creating your own celebration with friends, family, your children, neighbors, strangers and just be present in what's happening and behold the promise of hope!

Then share (though writing, art, music, etc.) how you spent the day and/or what it meant to you ~ with your partner.

Ideas: Make a "YES WE CAN" savings bank for your partner, make a patriotic parade stick (pom-pom), write your own reflective speech about what the day meant to you, make a mini poster of the day's headline news, take photos of the days event or your own party . . .the possibilities are endless!!!!!!!!!!

Since the inauguration is for EVERYONE - so is this swap, anyone who is able to swap here (not suspended), can join this swap and let's just see what happens when we simply take a chance on someone . . .I'd like to believe that YES WE CAN!!!!

No negative comments please (they will be removed immediately & reported). If you are not an Obama supporter - please be respectful & just start your own swap that supports your beliefs. After all, Freedom of Choice is why we live in a country called, America.

Well, I still have chills from yesterday - for the first time in my adult-life, I am proud and excited to be an American!!!!

Even my 17 year old son cried yesterday . .NOW, that says something!!!! I can hardly contain myself with renewed hope and enthusiasm, My son said to me last night, Barack makes me want to be a better person mom . . . now that sums it all up on how a leader should be, don't you think?

At an Inaugural Party yesterday, a new friend of mine was wearing a YES pin that he got from this site (its not a political site) but very appropriate and timely.
