Good Morning on this Day of Remembrance for those that lost their lives and those that lost loved ones. I think we all lost a bit of something that horrific day in our History...Innocence, Faith, Trust, Understanding...
I remember sitting in front of the TV doing Hailey's hair for school... Bub was down the hall getting ready for school, the first plane had hit and it was being broadcasted as a late breaking story...all of a sudden, here came plane #2.... The Horror.... I sat shocked and began crying...
Let all people know... you may have hurt us but you did NOT BREAK US!!!! Our Young Men and Women of the Military stand ready to protect us all!!!! Moms, Dads, Sisters, Brothers, Aunts, Uncles, Neighbors and Friends... As Lee Greenwood said it best...
God Bless The USA
by Lee Greenwood
If tomorrow all the things were gone,I'd worked for all my life.And I had to start again,with just my children and my wife.
I'd thank my lucky stars,to be livin here today.‘Cause the flag still stands for freedom,and they can't take that away.
And I'm proud to be an American,where at least I know I'm free.And I wont forget the men who died,who gave that right to me.
And I gladly stand up,next to you and defend her still today.‘Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land,God bless the USA.
From the lakes of Minnesota,to the hills of Tennessee.Across the plains of Texas,From sea to shining sea.
From Detroit down to Houston,and New York to L.A.Well there's pride in every American heart,and its time we stand and say.
That I'm proud to be an American,where at least I know I'm free.And I wont forget the men who died,who gave that right to me.
And I gladly stand up,next to you and defend her still today.‘Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land,God bless the USA.
And I'm proud to be and American,where at least I know I'm free.And I wont forget the men who died,who gave that right to me.
And I gladly stand up,next to you and defend her still today.‘Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land,God bless the USA.
I LOVE MY COUNTRY AND WILL ALWAYS STAND UP FOR HER!!!!!! GOD BLESS US ALL!!!

Thank you for posting this.
I'll always remember.
I'll remember the astonishment ... having been told at my 1st grade classroom door. One of my students was the child of an American Airlines International Flight Attendant ... trying to return home. Later we discovered that she was safe ... yet held over in Canada due to heightened National Security.
We must NEVER forget!

I WILL NEVER EVER FORGET! I can't believe most of us have "forgotten" what happened, on that day. No one remembers that those men Hated us! We cried for Justice, now we cry for "Equal" rights for them... But I won't, and I won't let my children forget 9-11!
