Tomorrow is definitely going to by an exciting day.. and I can't wait! :)
On a much sadder side note, Barack Obama's maternal grandmother Madelyn Payne Dunham passed away today after a long battle with cancer. In a joint statement that was released, Obama and his sister Maya Soetoro-Ng said:
She was the cornerstone of our family, and a woman of extraordinary accomplishment, strength, and humility,"
"She was the person who encouraged and allowed us to take chances. She was proud of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren and left this world with the knowledge that her impact on all of us was meaningful and enduring. Our debt to her is beyond measure."
Obama and Soetoro-Ng asked that donations be made for the search for a cure for cancer in lieu of flowers
