September 11th

I'll never forget. I'll never forget where I was & what I felt. I'll never forget the surreal sort of terror I felt.

I think I understood on a totally different level why our defense is so extremely important to our country.

Thank you so much God for allowing me to be born into America. I am SO proud to be an American!

p.s. My parents are visiting for a week --- be back to blogging next week! :) God bless each of you. I pray you are as appreciative and grateful as I am for all God has blessed us with as Americans!

As painful as the memories are of this day, I'm thankful for the reminder of just how blessed we are.

Have a wonderful week with your parents!

I was pregnant with my 3rd child at that time, and I remember being so afraid and wondering what in world was going to happen next. I felt unsafe as an American for the first time, and it was very scary to be pregnant and feel that way. Like you, I am so thankful to be born in America. God has blessed us.
I hope you have a great visit with your parents!

I remember that day well too - painful - so much loss...

I posted a bit on my Actions Speak Loudest blog - nothing profound just what was happening in my world that day.
