I will never forget....

As a child I often remember my parents and grandparents recalling tragic events in there lives....I recall stories of Hurricanes (Betsy and Camille for all the South Louisiana people!), stories of world war II, and Vietnam....but 10 years ago at 19 years old driving in my car to class at LSU....I heard over the radio "the second tower has been hit....."
Now today I am left with the great responsibility to teach my children about this horrific event....an event that not only changed me, but changed America forever. The way we live, travel, and work...is all different today because of 9/11/01...



Tonight my prayers are for the families who lost loves ones, children who have lost there parents all too soon, and for service men and women & there families who have sacrificed there lives for us so that we may be free...free to live, free to worship, free to study, free to speak....Just Free!!!
Freedom is something I never want to take for granted...

Praise God for the men and women who fight for us everyday...God Bless them and God Bless America!
