Agnostic Mom

Aiden and I put our flag up this morning. Blake and Trinity wore red, white and blue to school. Then when all the kids got home I gave them window markers to draw flags and stars on the sliding glass door in our kitchen. In addition to some cool flags there were also lots of volcanoes and hearts!

The best part was taking some banana bread over to a friend whose husband is a police officer. I know the possible sacrifice she and her husband say yes to every day that he walks out their door.

Tonight at dinner we will light candles for the thousands of our citizens that died on 9-11, for the thousands that have died in the wars, and for our memory of a day that opened our eyes.
