Yes, I am one of those millons of Americans that anxiously sat in front of thier tv's to see the commoner become a Princess, thats every little girls dream right? I was of the generation that can remember watching Lady Diana marry Prince Charles, seeing Prince Willam grow up through photographs and even that horrible tradgey that took a mother away from her precious boys. As Alana and I watched the Wedding unfold on tv, the main thoughts that kept running through my mind was how much Prince William looks and acts like his mother, how much he must miss her and how much his wife would make his mother proud. Princess Diana never conformed to royal protocol and standards, She raised her boys to think about the world around them, taught them about true human suffering and to help the world around you. They have become better men for it, and now as William married for love, I know he made his mother proud.
For a mother is proud of her children no matter what they do. But there are days as a parent that you can do nothing right, when you feel like your kids are not listening to the messages that you try to instill in them.Then out of the blue they suprise you, they say or do something and your like....."wow" they really are listening. Ive taught my kids actions speak louder then words, and every action /choice you make in this life has a consquence whether in this life or the one that is to come you will have to face those consquences of your choice.
Just like the death of Bin Laden, an I so proud to live in a country that has freedom. I am so proud of my family/friends that are willing to lay thier lives down to insure that we are free everyday. I am proud of thier wives that go months to years at time keepin the home fires burning, and childrening growing up healthy and strong as thier Daddy fights in wars for our freedom. Words can never truly express the love and appreciaion I have for each member of our military.Just as the Germans learned with World War 1, Japanese learned in World War II, North Vietnam learned in "The Conflict" you may come an attack us, you may even knock the wind out of our sails but we will get back up and fight. American will attack and hit back harder than you could ever imagine, we will preserve freedoms even if lives are lost they are never forgot. I am so glad that we can finally close a horrible chapter in American History and may the families that were effected on September 11th 2001 finally have closure. May thier lives finally begin to heal, I know that when you loose someone you love you are never truly the same again but instead of sorrow an fear may they find peace. May the men an women fighting wars in countries all over the world finally be allowed to come home.
