I'm sure each one of us remembers where we were on 9/11/2001. I was on my way to work when I heard the first reports on the car radio. As soon as I got to the office, I turned the TV on and watch with unbelief the unfolding story. What a tragic day for so many families, what a terrible day for America.
Then I remember how we all came together in unity to do what we could to help. It was a time that we forgot our differences and worked as one.
At the time my Prescott grandson was 9 years old. He was chosen to be part of a childrens' ensemble along with the Tim Parker quartet from Prescott, AZ that record a tribute that helped raise money for families of the New York firemen who gave their lives. Listen to the new verses written by Tim. A good way to reflect on this day--Enjoy
What a beautiful rendition! That song touches my heart like none other. May we never, ever forget!
ReplyDeleteI do remember. I was at work waiting for my second graders to start piling in. All the teachers were taking turns watching the TV in the teachers' lounge.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful song, I especially loved the children singing. Thanks for sharing :)
