SUNDAY- September 11, 2011<\/b> On this 10th anniversary of the 9\/11\/01 terrorist attack, people seem to be looking back and forward, and all around. As we remember what happened, and honor those who died, and those who spent the time after it helping out… the rescue crews, fireman, police, dogs, and everyday people, we also seem to still be waiting for the other shoe to drop. We pray it does not. We hope to move forward. There does not seem much to add to the many news programs, magazine articles, or newspaper columns that have been produced, except to say “God Bless America”. Which leads one to remember the song we all sang in grade school…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Written by Irving Berlin-
\nhow can we forget?
\nGod bless America,
\nLand that I love.
\nStand beside her, and guide her
\nThrough the night with a light from above.
\nFrom the mountains, to the prairies,
\nTo the oceans, white with foam
\nGod bless America, My home sweet home
\nGod bless America, My home sweet home.<\/p>\n

Another favorite is of course is the first verse
\nof America, The Beautiful by Katharine Lee Bates:
\nO beautiful for spacious skies,
\nFor amber waves of grain,
\nFor purple mountain majesties
\nAbove the fruited plain!
\nAmerica! America! God shed His grace on thee,
\nAnd crown thy good with brotherhood
\nFrom sea to shining sea!<\/p>\n

The last 10 years has seen world wide changes. There have been life altering events in many, many countries. Some for the good of people and the world, some that have been horrific. So, today, our thoughts are with all people of the world as we look forward.<\/p>\n

\n

 <\/p>\n

For those who look forward to the fabric of the week, the weekly fabric that goes on sale for a week… Yes, there is one. It is on the front page. But, we did not feel comfortable plugging it on this day of remembrance. We will resume the regular blog posts on Tuesday, as we are returning home tomorrow.<\/p>\n
