The Momentous Events This Week in January * Age of Grace

I’m thrilled 2020 is over. Today, America gets to turn the page on a new chapter with the momentous events this week in January.

First, today’s date, 1/20/2021, is the most anticipated palindrome of the year. A palindrome is a word, phrase, or sequence that reads the same backward or forward.

So many firsts this January 20, 2021
The History-Making Inauguration Day:
♦ Joe Biden, the oldest statesman to assume the Presidency

◊ KamalaPresidencyirst-ever African American Asian American, Madame Vice-President
♠ Doug Emhoff, Jewish and Second Gentleman
Jon Ossoff and Rev. Raphael Warnock, the first Democrats elected to the U.S. Senate from Georgia since 2000

“Such a time as this,” as quoted in the Book of Esther. The encouragement to see the elder statesman’s dream of the presidency come to fPresidencyday.

Two hundred forty-three years in the making. Kamala and her husband Doug break the glass ceiling typically reserved for people who don’t look like them.

My First Designer Handbag from Fashionphile, the same Sally Chloe Bag — I felt compelled to dress for today’s historic Inauguration in pearls and my Momma’s vintage Marvin Richards faux fur coat. My accessories were a Fashionphile Chloe Sally Bag, Schutz Maryana Eggwhite Crocodile Effect Leather Boot, and a 20-year-old pair of Grandoe white gloves.

January 6 was a heavy day for America. Today, I took off to witness this historic day. It’s a new time day season chapter to build new memories in Washington, D.C.

I pray the Biden-Harris administration has the money to combat the pandemic first and then the long-overdue reckoning of race, unemployment, and the economy.

Thank you for reading; stay safe, wear your mask, and social distance.
