God Bless America

I have not forgotten and I hope that you haven't either! I think we will all remember where we were 7 years ago...... I had just dropped Riley off at preschool and was on my way to Darren's uncle's house. As I was pulling onto his street, I heard them say that another plane had hit the second building.....I got out of the truck and ran ...Uncle Craig came out at the same time and asked me if I had heard and then he just hugged me.... I think he realized I was about to fall apart.

I didn't know what to do.... was there anything?? Should I go get Riley out of school??? and Darren, can he come home from work?? I just wanted to scoop my family up and keep them safe. I sat there on the couch with Uncle Craig until it was time to go pick up Riley. I took her home and fed her lunch and just held her until she fell asleep in my arms.... the whole time watching fox news. I wanted to help in some way I just didn't know how, I called and asked about giving blood but they said no b/c I was pregnant with Reagan. I just felt so helpless!!! My heart goes out to all those who lost a loved one on that day. I pray that they are at peace.

I have always been very patriotic but now I am even more proud to be an AMERICAN!!!!
