We Are So Lucky


On this 10th anniversary of 9/11 ~ I am reminded of the 
privilege we have to live in this country.  We can enjoy our lives with
those we love.  We are free to enjoy freedom and happiness.



We are blessed to live in such a beautiful country and to 
enjoy it's bounties.



We are free to be creative.



Most of us will never know what it is to go hungry.



We can enjoy simple pleasures.



And the special little things that bring us delight.

I am happy to call this great land home.
May we continue to enjoy our freedom and may we never
forget how fragile life is.

I am happy to join


God Bless us all.

Hugs,
Susan and Bentley
