Over the weekend we had Bahrain Tina and David over for dinner, and enjoyed yummy food and great conversation.
(Not a single picture was taken...blogger fail on both Tina's and my part!)
One of the things we discussed was the upcoming U.S. election, so when they left David and I were feeling all political and decided to watch some of the speeches from the DNC and the RNC.
I don't know if it's because I'm currently residing in a country where Women's Rights are so far behind so much of the world, or if it's because I'm raising a young daughter, but I was so struck by how historical this election is.
No matter your view on political parties, this is a great time for women in history!
Last month, there was this...
Nicola Sturgeon (First Minister of Scotland) and Theresa May (Prime Minister of the United Kingdom)

I read that tweet and cried.
Because AMEN.
And then there is the current Presidential nominee for the Democratic Party...

...and cue more tears.

What a fascinating time to be alive and experience these monumental times that will create beautiful new chapters in history books.
Yes!
