The fact of Flight 93 that tells us who they were:
“Pushed to the back of the plane by hijackers, the passengers and crew took a vote - and decided to fight back to try and regain control of their airplane.”
Their first impulse as Americans: they took a vote.

Lot of high school seniors who applied early admission to college are getting news today that maybe they didn’t want.
Everything is going to be ok.
Rejection sucks but you can almost certainly end up someplace you absolutely love and get a great education. Hang in there.
I know I’m not alone in this…
We dropped our youngest child off for the final college drop off!
And just like that … we can do whatever we want.
And all I want
is to run it back.
Happy Birthday to our William - our baby

I won’t embarrass him with gushing poetry or lyrics...he spent his childhood putting up with that :) He’s just a gem. ❤️
Pelosi: "I don't hate anybody..." She stipulated she was raised in a Catholic household...
Catholics are taught that hatred is a grave sin because it means that you wish evil on another person - this clearly struck a nerve...
On her way out of the door, Pelosi returned to the lectern when a reporter asked if she hated the president. "I don't hate anybody," she said. "As a Catholic, I resent your using the word 'hate' in a sentence that addresses me." She said she prays for the pres "all the time."
My oldest brother Bob was our leader, beloved Uncle and lifelong friend. Enormous loss.
He was our lighthouse high on solid rock to whom we turned in both sun and storms.
I’ll miss him for the rest of my life 💔

Bill Shields took a bite out of life.
He was my friend, but truly - he was everyone’s friend.
A Texas boy who embraced New England, and LOVED telling stories here. Can’t even think of him without a smile.

“Only a dad, but he gives his all
To smooth the way for his children small,
Doing, with courage stern and grim,
The deeds that his father did for him.
This is the line that for him I pen,
Only a dad, but the best of men.”

On September 11th, I finally understood. We'll be 90 and we'll cry.
