They are the unsung heroes! Michelle, you are part of
a great group of heroes! My boys always yell and wave
at every fire truck on the way back from somewhere and
thank them for a job well done! No mater what the job,
all those wonderful people come together and really do
perform miracles! We are all sad for so many who are
lost and our heart goes out to you and all of their
families! America was hit but we are not down for the
count! We are all holding our heads high and going on
and forward!
hugs for all of you,
Wanda and her sad but very proud American Muggles
