Flag Pride

Josh got up at 6am this morning to make sure flags were put up in the area. I was so proud of him getting up and doing this. Flying the flag today is what I needed ~ to feel that pride, to quiet the lasting fears since 2001.

I have friends who have made beautiful expressions regarding Patriot Day, please check them out:

Thanks for visiting. :); September 11, 2008 at 2:56 PM
