Today was hard

We did not do school yesterday so we made it up today.  Tara and I lit a candle this morning in remembrance of all those who died today 9 years ago.  The kids asked about it, so I told them.  It was a very hard thing to do though.  How do you explain to a 6 year old and an almost 5 year old how scary that day was?  Do you even want them to know?  I did the best I could, explaining what happened (without even mentioning Muslims).  We told them that was the reason for Daddy being away from us.  We also watched a short clip on the towers falling.  I was torn on if I would show them, but they are both pretty advanced and I figured they could handle it. They did well with the short lesson.

Happy Birthday Michael!

I love this song and think it's completely appropriate for Michael and I.

No matter what other people have thought about our relationship Michael and I have stayed strong, we've had our problems and managed to work through them and stay strong.  I love him more today than I did 13 years ago when I met him.  Yesterday was his birthday and I think it was a great day to celebrate, the birth of the amazing man I call my husband.  I love you baby!!

You're Still The One lyrics
Songwriters: Lange, Robert; Twain, Shania;
When I first saw you, I saw love
And the first time you touched me, I felt love
And after all this time, you're still the one I love


Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
We mighta took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday


They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong


(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life


(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night


Ain't nothin' better
We beat the odds together
I'm glad we didn't listen
Look at what we would be missin'


They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong


(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life


(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
You're still the one


(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life


(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night


I'm so glad we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
