Reliving 9/11 is painful. It hurts my heart so much to think of those who lost their lives. Especially when given a glimpse into individual lives. Children who lost parents, parents who lost children, wives who lost husbands, husbands who lost wives. So painful to think of not knowing for a period of time whether your loved one was ok or not. Bry and I had only been married for 3 months when 9/11 occured. we were living in Utah and I was going to school at BYU. My sister had actually called and told us to turn on the news. We turned it on, only one tower had been hit and I was on my way out the door to go to class. I walked so Bry could stay and watch the news. By the time I got to campus the other tower had been hit and I walked into my class and my professor told us that class was cancelled. I was starting to get anxious. I called Bry and I went and found a bench on campus to have a seat and while on the phone the 1st tower hit had just fallen. I noticed how quiet the sky was. Provo has a lot of air traffic that lands in SLC. It was so eerie. I was getting a little frantic and hurried home. It was devastating. And still is. It is painful for me to see pictures. Painful to hear stories of loved ones lost. Causes even a little anxiety to relive it. It changed our world. Im grateful for the many servicemen who lost their lives trying to save the people in the building and my heartbreaks that they never made it out.
Maryn Jane is 2 ! Our sweet baby girl is 2! Maryn is such a joy, she is such a social butterfly and loves to gives hugs and kisses. She is such a fun baby. She is up for anything and loves to play with Presley and Knox. She is really starting to talk well. She loves her cousin Callie she calls her coco. We did a minnie mouse theme because that is the only character she seems to have an association with since we went to Disney world. She calls her momo. She is always full of surprises and lots of expression on her little face. We sure do love you Maryn Jane.
We have been married 8 years and have 3 wonderful children. Bryan is in school finishing his Under grad in history at BYU and taking the LSAT this fall with plans to attend law school in fall of 2010. I graduated with a degree in Psychology in 2004, worked for 3 years, and after the arrival of our 2nd decided it was no longer practical for me to be away from home. I am now a homemaker who is blessed to be able to stay home with our sweet babies.
