September 11, 2001

History has always fascinated me. I love hearing personal accounts from people that have been there, done that. I never thought I would live through something that someday I could tell my children, "Yes, I lived then, and I remember exactly what I was doing when it happened." Well, much to my heartache, seven years ago it happened. Everything that happened that day is still fresh in my mind. Even though I was located in Rexburg, Idaho; my heart hurt like I was standing in downtown New York City.

I'm not sure what else to write, I just wanted to acknowledge the day so "We Will Never Forget".

I still am totally impressed that you change your music to the theme of your posts...wow!

It IS amazing how fresh that lives and how you can be taken back to such a place instantly. Thanks for your thoughts. I think they were very fitting...

PS...I saw your sweet comment on Jenny's blog...have we really only known each other 1 year? Maybe a year and a half....hmmm...either way, I feel like it's SO much longer! I sometimes think I have known you my whole life!! And I am so glad about that...I really am so happy to be your friend. Knowing you makes me happy!

I loved the song that you chose to go with your 9/11 post Mallena. How creative. I'm glad you did something in honor of the day. Oh-and I loved looking at your D.C. pictures. Looks like you all had a great time. I love the ones depicting Shaylynn's new way of throwing a tantrum!

That was cool! I had to listen to the whole thing. I remember I was at my first day of horse back riding on a tuesday at 7:30 am when I saw it on the tv's out in the hall. It took a couple days to sink in what had happened.
