9/11

Do you remember where you were when the World changed? I do!! I was a new Mom, Jr was 4 months. I was nursing him in bed and my sister called me in a panic. "HURRY turn the tv on you cant believe what happen in NY!!!" Talking to my sister we watched the tv we saw the second tower get hit live. I had so many feelings. Between shock, broken hearted, worry, sick to my stomach, and feeling lucky all at the same time. Gabe had just come back from NY two weeks earlier. My sister husband Paul is from NY and has so much family that lives there. One of his cousin who is a firefighter we were all freaking out about. THANK GOD he called in sick that day. His crew or ladder (not sure what they are called)most of them were killed. After 10 years I still can't wrap my head around this EVIL!!! My heart goes out to all those people who lost their lives and most of all to their families. Im positive the pain and hurt that they feel will never go away.
I've been watching all the tv specials on this weekend for the 10 year. Their were so children who spoke about losing their Mom or Dad. One young man was maybe about 20ish really touched me. He was talking about not having his Dad around to watch him play football, teach him how to drive, see him go to the prom, see him graduate from high school,  give him advice about dating, seeing him off to college. Tears all weekend, all I could think is THANK YOU GOD GABE WASNT THERE!!! He was just there two weeks earlier. Jr could have been  just like that young guy. I would have never had Matteo. My life could have turned out so different. THANK YOU GOD!!!! I know as a Catholic we are taught to believe God has a plan for all of us. But the EVIL that happen on 9/11.I know God didnt plan for all this and didnt plan for those people to have lost their lives that morning. See I can't even wrap my head around this.

Thank you to all the service men and women fighting for our freedom.

9/11/2001 We will never forget.  That morning our lives changed forever.
