9-11

Although I have only dedicated this site to my crazy crafting!!! Today I wanted to remind people to remember!! Remember our freedoms....remember those who fight for us!! Remember those people (civilians) who lost thier lives!! Remember those who are home missing those who are fighting for us!!

We live in a great country! Although sometimes we don't like this or that, but we have the freedom to state it!! The freedom to talk!! The freedom's that other people can only dream about!! It has taken people's lives to get that and it still does!! Please pray for those who lost loved ones 8 years ago!! Please pray for those who lost loved one in this war!! Today we should remember...it makes us stronger if we united in a thought!!
