Dear Grace -- September 11th and Meskerem 1st



 Dear Grace,
This morning when I woke up it was the tenth anniversary of September 11th.  A day of remembrance for a day that will forever be imprinted in my head.  I will always remember and be thankful for the many brave heroes of that day and the heroes that continue to keep us safe.  



When you woke up this morning it was a day of celebration.  Melkam Addis Amet ( Happy New Year)!   It is a day of joy and new beginnings!!  I hope you could feel the positive energy!!  Even though you are not to solid food yet, I hope you could smell the injera and lamb prepared for this special day.  


Hopefully, next year we will be together.  We will celebrate many joyous events together.   I can not wait to see your smiling face.  We will also experience moments of sadness but we will be there to hold you and keep you safe.  
We love you so much.
Mommy and Daddy
