Re: Pls look at this link/ Moms and Dads are heroes

[Guest guest]

To Juli and everyone,

I wanted to bring attention to the power of those of us that

are " just " parents. Kristy is a mom from North Carolina who

had not sung much professionally after her kids were born -but after

hearing about 9-11, and feeling like most of us -that she wanted to

do " something " about it but not knowing what -she picked up her

guitar and started to tell a story through a simple song called

Little Did She Know -a song about something that moved her about 9-11.

Even though it doesn't go into these details here at this link

http://www.kristyjackson.com/journey.htm, I know this because I heard

her radio interview on WPLJ. I first heard the song on WPLJ radio -a

station out of NYC -and was so moved by it that I started crying the

first time I heard it. Out of all the 9-11 images at that time that

were horrific to believe and accept at first -this one I could relate

to -a simple story about a dad on his way to work on a typical day -

and how soon after that the rest of the world finds out what a hero

his wife always knew he was. I was not the only one that was so

moved by the song -and soon it became the number one requested song

on WPLJ -everyone that heard it was moved by it -and still is.

Not only did Kristy provide a powerful tribute to the heroes of 9-11,

she also once again showed us the power of being " just " a parent, and

how just one person can change the world -or at least the way we look

at it.

Thanks for the inspiration!
