Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends --John 15:13

Ten years ago Ethan was 19 months old.  I am shocked at some of the things he can remember from such an early age.  September 11, 2001 is not one of them and part of me is grateful for that.  That day is never far from my thoughts and it still brings me to tears.  Ethan watched a program on one of the kids channels about 9/11.  Afterwards he asked me, "why did they do that?".  I began to answer and along with my words came tears.  Hannah then asked, "why is mom crying?".  Ethan responded with an answer and understanding that ages him beyond his years..."Because she loves Dad".
