9/11

Sometimes I wish that more people would come at this day a little more humble than others.  I know that there are so many men who come at this day with a heavy heart, who know and have experienced the repercussion of this day first hand, my husband included.  There is still a war going on, and while everyone is going about their day as if it were any other day, there are sacrifices being made.  I use to look at these people who have seem to "forget" in a negative light, but today, I don't blame them.  I probably would be the same way had I not married a Marine who risks so much of his life to defend my freedom and yours or became friends with the one's whose lives have been lost as well as so many women who have been in my shoes.  Some people don't realize how lucky they are to live in the land of the Free because of the Brave.  When we ask you to "Never Forget" we mean it! Be thankful for your freedom and the men who fought for you to keep it!  I am thankful everyday for my husband and that he is alive and well, the scars he holds from this war doesn't even compare to what could have been...
