Eleven Years After 9.11

It’s been eleven years since the day that forever changed our country.

I’ve been struggling with how to share 9.11 with John and I just don’t think he’s ready to bear the weight of the day’s events just yet.  He’s prone to worrying and we believe that every day of blissful, childhood innocence is a gift.  So while I won’t be watching the news coverage, I will be carrying a heavy heart as the horror of watching this day unfold in 2001 is as raw today as it was then.
So very proud to be an American and so thankful for all of the men and women that bravely serve this great country.
