This week we returned to our Pandemic Postcard series, where children across the world have told us what Covid-19 has been like for them. Today it's the turn of Layla Lynch in Boston USA. @lynchielydia
On a day for the history books, @TheAmandaGorman delivered a poem that more than met the moment. Young people like her are proof that "there is always light, if only we're brave enough to see it; if only we're brave enough to be it."

Tonight, Ireland you found that and then some. The #RTÉToyshowAppeal has passed the 5 MILLION mark ❤️
Thank you for sharing your fun, love and kindness to make tonight so special.

While I may be the first woman in this office, I will not be the last—because every little girl watching tonight sees that this is a country of possibilities.
America, I’m honored that you have chosen me to lead our great country.
The work ahead of us will be hard, but I promise you this: I will be a President for all Americans — whether you voted for me or not.
I will keep the faith that you have placed in me.
Congratulations @joebiden and @kamalaharris. Our world needs American leadership and true American values. We know you can give it. Hope you can both make it to Ireland soon ♥️🇮🇪🇺🇸 KamalaHarris
