Lookie!

I was wondering where I'd park until I spied this hottie. I think Karl the Wonder Truck approved.

To This Day, I Wish She Had Been Right

"It's just TV, Mommy."

My baby girl was trying to comfort me. I had screamed in pure horror at the television. How do you explain to a three year old what just happened, especially when you don't know yourself? I needed to calm down, for her sake as well as my own. Finally I was able to speak, but what to say? I tried to think through the haze, to explain without scaring her.

"No, baby, lots of people are dying right now. This very second. This is for real." I stared at the TV. All I could do was pray.

We had taught our daughter well. She knew that things on TV were fake. She knew actors pretended to die, but went home to their sons and daughters at the end of the day. Unfortunately, September 11, 2001, brought home the fact that some things were for real.

I still wish Middlest had been correct.

GOD bless their souls and those that miss them.

Just Watch It

A video forwarded to me in an email.

A good 20 seconds into it, I knew what I would see at the end.

"Hand Mommy a tissue, please."

Now, what was Library Gryffon saying about a different point of view? Hope you like it.
