Baby Carrie reacts to election results

Baby Carrie gave her mom some "heartburn"and some contractions, last night. I attribute it to this being her way of telling us how upset she is with the election outcome. She was wanting to get out here and straighten things up. Wow, there were alot of upsets throughout the country.
I have heard people say how important this election was, well I believe every election is important!
I'm sure there are many that don't agree with me, but that is what is great about this Country. I have always been proud of this country and having been blessed to be born in this country. I didn't just become proud of this country as some have said.
I feel somewhat saddened that everyone refers to this as a historic election, I am assuming that is because a black person was elected. I feel by constantly referring to him being the first black president is just a continuation of divisiness. Why can't he just be the new president?
I wouldn't have voted for him regardless of race. The Democrats have alot to prove and I hope they hit the ground running, we can't waste anymore time, according to their assessment of things. Yes, the Republicans made alot of mistakes, but the Democrats need to stand up and own their responsibility in the country's current situation as well.

I love this theory!! It's hilarious! Knowing how much her dad gets heated about politics, I have no doubt Carrie is frustrated that she has to be born under the results of this election. And yes, she's very good at hiding. I can feel her in my back and ribs, so she's definitely growing, she jsut likes being inside!
