This is why I write

I hit 70 followers today. I would like to take the time to thank all of you who follow my blog who keep coming back to read what I wrote many times a day. I'm glad you take the time to download my pictures. I hope you enjoy the crafts I do with my kids. Please leave comments on anything or give pointers. I started this blog just to write about becoming a mommy again after 8 years. Looking back I wouldn't change a thing. Why do you write?

 

A Note 10 years later

I don't know if I could live with the thoughts these ladies have to deal with now. It's very sad so many are left with phones calls of pure panic. Most were left with the last picture of their loved ones walking out the front door for work. I remember one thing my mother used to tell me when we would fight like mother's and daughters do "Don't ever leave upset or go to bed angry because you never know if this is your last goodbye." Everyone should live by those words alone. Life is to short for what ifs. My husband and I don't ever really have an argument where this would take place. We always make up within five minutes. I'm glad I married my best friend. I think because of that is why we have stayed married for so long. I could never picture having a lost like the people who have been left behind to pick up the pieces from this tragedy.  I can't think about this day without crying for the ones who past, the families of the fallen and what war means. They are all in my prayers. God Bless you all.

9/11 Heroes

There are many people who helped out on 9/11 many left unnamed. Many who left their families to go who didn't return. I remember a story I read somewhere on line that a police offer just heard the news on the radio as he drove home from a midnight shift. He got out his car walked inside and explain to his pregnant wife he had to go back. He left her on the porch begging him not to go. He never came back.


Tomorrow is a big part of U.S.A history my history. It was the reason I wanted to join the military along with many more. I spent an hour tonight watching a special on the 9/11 emergencies  that happen below the burning towers. My son and I saw and discuss this lady who was recalling the events of that day fighting back tears. We both began to cry I couldn't help but feel the pain she must have gone through along with all the people she helped that day. She talked about the skin of a man who was very badly burnt. How his skin fell off in her hands. She didn't have time to think she rush him instead the ambulance an took off. I don't think I could ever do what these men and women did that day. They continue to do this everyday. They run into a burning building as people are running out. God Bless them all. It really takes a special person to take on such a task. Many lost loved ones many lost in many different places. I hope they can all find peace as well as our Nation.
Let's take a few moments and pray please never forget.
