My Mom voted for the first time in her life today. It was awesome. A few days ago I asked her if she was registered and she said she didn't know. So, I logged into the SOS site and checked. Sure enough she was registered. I dragged her to the early voting site today. We waited in line for 30 minutes but she was so excited it made the wait so worth it. I stood next to her and read the instructions while she figured the machine out. For those who are used to the process, congratulations, but for my mom today was a special day. Her voice was heard. The little old lady from Yazour is now an Obama Mama.

Good that you took Khalto out to vote! I hope Obama will show change in his dealing with the situation in Gaza and all of the Middle East and the world. Love your blog! Nora Ashour (Shabib)
