I picked up my 16 year old grandson after school today. I always ask him what, if anything, he learned in school that day. I happened to ask him if anyone mentioned 9-11 in school today. He said no. I told my wife later and we both felt sad that important events are so often forgotten. I confess I don't always celebrate national holidays and remember the reasons behind their significance. I guess many people think they're just a day they don't have to work.

Wes, thanks for your wonderful book, "Picking Up the Pieces".
