May 26, 2008 is a special day in the United States. It is the day we pay tribute to the men and women of our military who gave their lives so that we may be free.

On September 11, 2001, I was busy working in my office in a small suburban town that lies in the shadow of New York City. A co-worker began to yell about a plane that accidentally flew into the World Trade Center. We soon learned it was an attack, not an accident. I comforted a friend, whose father was last seen in one of the towers. We watched in horror as people jumped from the towers to escape the raging fires. When the towers fell, we could see the ash in the air all around us. We realized that, while we may be oceans away from the conflicts of the world, we were no longer safe. For many of us, we lost friends, family and community members that day. In response, many men and women felt the call to protect our country and enlisted in the military. Now, almost 7 years later, more than 4000 U.S. Soldiers have given their lives to protect our loved ones from terrorism. Though this is a small number compared to Vietnam (over 58, 000 soldiers), World War 1 (over 116, 000 soldiers) and World War 2 (over 400,000 soldiers), each life has value and each soldier should be remembered for his/her sacrifice regardless of anyone's political or religious views.

My thoughts and prayers are with all military families on this special day of remembrance. And I am thankful to all of the men and woman who have sacfificed their lives so that my loved ones can be free.

It's PROM time here in my area and it's made me feel a bit nostalgic. There are a couple of songs I still remember that made my prom so special. I thought I'd share them...

This song still makes me a little teary-eyed.

This song makes me want to slow dance with my pillow.

They need to have proms for grown-ups. I think I really could appreciate it more now that I older. A gorgeous gown, a pretty corsage and a cute boy in a tuxedo. Yup, I certainly would be appreciatin' all those things right about now.....

And the Winner is......

Bravo to America's Next Top Model, Whitney.

Have you ever noticed, there isn't a lot of REAL in REALity T.V.? But not tonight! Tyra Banks and crew have selected a REAL size woman as it's next top model. She's not plus size or even full figured. She's just an average size woman with REAL curves in all of the right places. It's about time!!! Bravo ANTM, Bravo Whitney!!!
