~~ NEVER FORGOTTEN~~

It's the tenth anniversary of 9/11, such a sad reminder of lives lost. Saturday night I turned on TLC one of my favorite channels and it was a show on about 9/11 as we all sat still quiet and watched on the edge of our seats,I looked around the room at my babies sitting there so quiet watching in disbelief of the horrible violence that America went thru. The air traffic controllers are talking about the hijackers and how they had hurt the pilots and flight attendant Michael who is nine and usually is in a world where it's safe and no harm will ever happen the way this momma likes it He turns to me and says mom i don't understand WHY those people would kidnap all those poor people and hurt them and the people in the building and themselves why did they do that. As I looked at my beautiful boy with those big blue eyes The only thing i could do is try not to cry so with tears in my eyes looking into his eyes I only said I don't know buddy sometimes people just are bad and don't know right from wrong. After the show was done we had decided it would be fun to sleep downstairs well fun for them this momma on the other hand could barely walk the next morning. But I'm sure they felt safe in some way. Sunday morning my husband surprised us with breakfast and again we sat in disbelief watching the TV i wanted to scream please turn it off please but i couldn't scream words wouldn't come out of my mouth and believe me anyone that knows me would tell you I'm not at a loss for words. ;) The faces on the TV just made me so sad the brave fireman that the cameras caught going towards danger just made my heart ache for their families knowing what i know now of how their lives would turn out the police officers screaming for people to run to safety all the while they sat in that spot of danger helping others. Then the screams that came when people noticed the people coming from the windows oh please make it stop please!!!! So I got up from the table cleaned up went upstairs pulled out our shirts with the most beautiful flag on it. For the first time i wasn't dressing my kid for the theme of the day i was dressing my kids for America for how we will always remember 9/11 and never will we ever forget ever.
