9/11


I completely forgot to say something about 9/11.  What a tragedy that was!  I was driving to work yesterday morning and saw a man holding the American flag and I though how great it was to see him so proud to be an American.  I wanted to honk as I went by but I came and went too fast on the street.  As I passed him I heard a few horns.  I got chills and the weirdest thing was I had no idea what the date was. . .  until I got to work and saw it was 9/11. Suddenly it all made sense to me.  No wonder he was out there, how neat is that.  Even 8 hours later he was still standing there holding that flag.  People amaze me sometimes.  My family and I were lucky and knew no one that was hurt that day.  Although we will never forget it, I think we can all tell exactly what we were doing when it happened.  I saw this picture not too long ago and I thought it was so neat how the sun formed a cross on the flag.
