I was gettng the two oldest ready for school and then our station had an emergency announcement; It was when the first plane crashed through the tower I was horrified for those people and their families! When the second tower got struck I was so shocked and scared all I could do was sit down and cry, as the events kept unfolding eveeryone seemed to be calling everyone to say I Love you and make sure that they were alright. I stayed glued to the t.v. i just couldn't believe this was happening in our homeland; and how we all were doing little things for everyone at groundzero that were trying to save as many lives as possible and comforting others ; My husband worked at print shop and everyone begin making flags in all sizes (stickers ,bumper stickers posters and the T- shirt designs were unbelievable some made me proud others took me by surprise we donated them to diff. organizations and I'm sure they made their way to all the men and women that forgot about their own lives for a few to help in a great time of need; I still cry whenever I think about we made homemade ribbons for our children to where to school this day/our flags fly proud on our home on a van where ever I go I want people to know that I am proud to be an American and proud of the people who aren't afraid to stand up for her!!!!
I hope that this will bring our pledge and so on back to our schools so that my children can be as proud of OUR COUNTRTY as I am they are the future!!!


MAY GOD BLESS EACH AND EVERYONE OF US EACH AND EVERY DAY;AND FRIENDS REMEMBER THAT ANYONE OF US COULD BE AN ANGEL LOOKING IN TO SEE IF WE'RE DOING OUR BEST;SO LETS TAKE CARE OF OUR COUNTRY SUPPORT ONE AND ANOTHER AND HELP BRING PEACE TO OUR WORLD!!!



With Love for all;
