A moment in History

Tonight our country is claiming victory over the death of Osama Bin Laden, I feel that this is an important piece of history to document on our blog, it will be many years before our daughters will even have a remote understanding of how monumental this night is but should they some day look back and wonder what they were doing I want them to be able to see!

Sweet Girls,

Tonight is a moment in American History, Today an evil man was killed, Osama Bin Laden was the man who orchestrated the 2001 Twin Tower Attacks in New York City, Over 3000 innocent people were killed that day and tonight those families have a small piece of closure. Tonight while President Obama was making this announcement you were sleeping soundly in your beds, safe with full belly's, no worries and with the comforts of all the things that being an American brings you, you are free to worship Jesus, you have freedom of speech, and you have so many rights that so many children around the world will never have. Tonight a moment in History was made and you were right where you should've been, dreaming sweet childlike dreams without the worry of war and bombs and so many other things that we can still shelter you from. Tomorrow you will wake up and the most important thing to you will be whether or not it is a "going to Meme's day" or not. Today I am so Thankful that we are Americans and that we are able to raise you in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.

Love,
Mommy
