I will never forget this night. Holding my son close as I watch such a remarkable man make his #farewell speech here in Chicago. Besides his beautiful spirit of hope and freedom, he is an example to my sons that the color of their skin should not deter them from their dreams. He energized and inspired so many. They should also strive to do the same. #farewellobama #presidentobama #faith #hope #blackboyjoy #potus #flotus #chicago #legacy #barackobama

A historical moment calls for a picnic table in the living room. Hopefully his words are sinking into their little brain cells. #farewellobama – My tribe loves you ❤️

We said goodbye together, my mom, Ava, and I. Ava sat in my lap and we shared a moment in history together. She’s too young to be able remember his legacy, but tonight to clapped, cheered and told our president, “I love you”. #mrpresident #farewell #thankyou #history #historical #nighttoremeber #obama #2017 #farewellobama

Okay…let me 1st say: I was raised in a very politically aware household…We did a lot of reading, had a lot of conversations and debates, and my 1st visit into the voting polls with my mom was at age 12. You know what they say…the doesn’t fall too far from the tree…I am holding in my laughter, consoling my baby, and I kind of feel the same way. MY BABY IS CRYING OVER OBAMA LEAVING OFFICE!!!! Damn!!! #farewell #obama #farewellobama #realtears #44 #singlemomsrock #singlemom #singledad #singleparent #parenthood #mommyduties #tsmd #thesinglemomdiary
