Hey fam! I posted this on my personal Facebook page this morning but I wanted to share it here too. So many of you are basically like family to me. Much love from Canada to all of you in the U.S. today.
“My heart is with everyone in the U.S. as they mark 25 years since 9/11! I was only 7, and my only real vivid memory is from watching the news that night with my parents and seeing the images that we’ve all seen way too many times. I do remember hearing our local news mention it on the radio that morning but it’s not as vivid. I didn’t understand what that day meant until I was older. It’s hard to believe that multiple generations now have only learned about the events through history class at school.”
Sending so much love on a day full of so much sadness.
