It’s been a busy day in the Colliflower/Ortiz family today.  Aside from being a fairly political family and being anxious about the long-anticipated presidential election today, we were awoken around 6 a.m. this morning by my sister Courtney dropping off my nephew Owen so that her and her husband could head to the hospital.  Stella Noelle wanted in on all of the political excitement, and she showed herself to the world at 11:13 a.m. with a swift and easy delivery.  She’s a gorgeous little election day baby.  Needless to say the day has been rather hectic, only to continue with non-stop news watching for the remainder of the evening.

I’ve been debating about the “obligatory election post” and whether or not to jump on the band wagon, but I have still not yet decided.  I think I’ll be more swayed to write if this election goes a particular way. Here’s to HOPE.
