WE WERE HOME WATCHING THE TODAY SHOW WHEN IT WAS REPORTED THAT ONE OF THE WORLD TRADE CENTERS HAD BEEN HIT .AT FIRST WE THOUGHT HOW TERRIBLE AND HORRIFIC IT WAS--THAT WAS UNTIL THE SECOND TOWER WAS HIT AND THE REALIZATION OF THE ENORMITY OF WHAT WAS TO BE ONE OF THE WORST DISASTERS OF OUR COUNTRY. IT SHOOK US TO THE CORE.THEN CAME THE PENTAGON AND THE SHANKSVILLE PENNSYLVANIA CRASH. HOW TERRIBLE FOR THE VICTIMS WHO SHOWED SUCH BRAVERY AND HEROISM,AND FOR THE FAMILIES THAT HAD BEEN TORN APART BY WHAT HAD HAPPENED.TO THIS DAY I THINK OF THEM. IT WILL FOREVER BE ETCHED IN OUR MINDS!

I THINK I AM MORE APPRECIATIVE OF EVERY DAY AND FOR MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY AROUND ME.TAKING SOME TIME TO SAY I LOVE YOU AND TO CHERISH EACH DAY WITH THOSE YOU LOVE.

ALL THE PEOPLE WHO WHO ACTED WITH SUCH BRAVERY AND HEROISM IN THE FACE OF IMPENDING DOOM AND THE FAMILY MEMBERS LEFT BEHIND.

TO NEVER FORGET THE SACRIFICES MADE!

YES. THAT THE AMERICAN FLAG REPRESENTS THE UNITY OF OUR FREE COUNTRY.
