I can't believe that it's been 10 years since those terrible moments occurred. I'll never forgot where I was or what I was doing when we got the news...
I was a senior in high school and had just finished showering after cross country. I was standing in the locker room curling one of the freshman girls hair when an announcement blared over the intercom.
I got chills throughout my entire body and tears instantly filled my eyes.
I will never forgot that day.
Those lives lost.
The way Americans came together that day.
There were so many lives lost not only that day but also in the years following because of all those that sacrificed to fight and defend America.
My dh joined the Marines shortly after day like so many other men.
So today, I remember.
I pray for all those whose lives were forever changed that day.
I pray for the families of those lost that day.
I pray for all our troops, police officers and fire fighters who responded and fought that day-and still today.
I will never forget.
God bless your dh and so many others for their bravery!
ReplyDeleteI agree with JB! God bless our service men and women, especially your hubby!! and all the police, firefighters, and EMTs who keep us safe.
ReplyDeleteDitto to the above comments!
ReplyDeleteI was a senior in high school, too... I had just walked to my counselors office, I think to talk about college "stuff" and I saw the images on tv. It seemed unreal.
