It seems like a lifetime ago, when I heard the news of terrorist attacks in America. I knew instantly my life as a military wife would never be the same. I can remember Fort Campbell being on lock down and Casey not being able to leave post. I can vividly remember driving down 41 outside of base in the days after; seeing armed soldiers standing guard just inside of the fences surrounding the base. Since that day, Casey has been deployed three separate times, for a total of nearly 40 months.
My heart breaks for the families who lost loved ones in the 9/11 attacks, it really does. My heart breaks just a little bit more for the families who lost loved ones in Afghanistan and Iraq following the 9/11 attacks.
Every day is a good day to hug your loved ones, 9/11 is a good day to hug them a little bit tighter.
