Portrait unveiling for the Obamas was amazing

[In It to Win It]

I'm not a crier and I got teary eyed.

It was so heartwarming.

1. I just said for me it was restorative. We needed that

Michelle was right about certain traditions being important to our democracy and our participation in it

3. It reminded me of watching the West Wing back in the day.

It just made you feel good.

4. Not a dry eye in my house.

Yes, lots of feel-good feelings, as Jill Biden said “the magic” of that election night in Chicago. It’s been a long time since we had those thoughts.

8. I cried. It was so nice to see everyone together. Every speech was excellent.

The chairman of the White House Historical Assoc. gave a wonderful intro.

9. I sat wiping tears too.

Obama will go down in history as a great man, a great President.

While listening, I whispered to my dh that I had a lump in my throat. True.

And Michelle, yes, yes, "she's fine" and greatly missed.
