43. What a gracious and inspiring speech

It is amazing she was able to keep her composure because it is such an emotional moment. She really paused and took it in and shared it with everyone. This is such a huge milestone and she has worked so very hard to get to this point. I love how she said she would take a few days to adjust to it! I know many of us feel the same way.

I am so proud of Hillary and our country tonight.
