"It's like we can all breathe again"

Words said by my husband on our way home from a little field trip with Max.  We took him to see the piece of the World Trade Center that is in our city and left flowers.

Yesterday was huge for our country, our family and all families who have lost loved ones on 9/11, fought for our freedom since then and FDNY and the NYPD.  Pure evil has left this earth and closure has been found for all involved.  A HUGE day in American history and we wanted our son to someway be involved.

Justice has come.  3000 people killed by this man, more in the war fought to protect our country from him.  Justice has come to the lives lost.  Justice has come to the military who silently keep fighting for us.  Justice has come to the families of the military quietly letting our loved ones go and fight.

People fear retaliation, but what was our option?  To let them attack our country and do nothing because we fear the repercussions?  That is not what this country is about.  We fight and we will continue to do so.

Today our country is unified.  You can feel it in the air.  

A heartfelt THANK YOU to our President for continuing this fight until finished and to our military for bravely protecting us.    JOB WELL DONE.  It has not gone unnoticed.
