Never Forget

10 years ago today I was getting ready to go to school in the 7th grade. I almost wish I would have been more mature to have really understood what was going on as I was watching the news that morning with my mom in her bedroom. I remember she started crying and I felt so confused but at the same time just had this feeling in me that something was really wrong. I went to school and went to my swing choir class and Mr. Evans was crying too, but they weren't allowing us to watch the news. Garett was a sophmore in High School and his experience was different because he was older and understood more of the reality and the change that this was going to have over our country. He said that that day his history teacher turned on the tv and said "Shut up, Listen and watch....this is History."
I'm thankful for all those in law enforcement or that put themselves in harms way everyday to protect us and our country. I am will always be proud of my dad serving on the Springville fire department and the Springville Police department. He is my Hero, along with all those that risked their lives 10 years ago on 9 11
