September 11, 1990
16 years ago I gave birth to my 3rd child…….a beautiful boy. He was born at 9:01am on 9/11/90.
Jump ahead 11 years…..9/11/01……as we were getting ready for school that morning, the reports were filling in. Most were uncertainties as no one really knew what was truly happening. We continued in our morning routine and I dropped the kids at school. As the day progressed the horror and sadness filled up and over. Schools were locked down and the children were unreachable. I could hardly breathe.
We were finally allowed to reach our children and seconds later I was handed a note from the birthday boy. This is from my teacher, he said.
As I read it, I wept. ” Dear Garrett, Today will be a day that will forever be remembered as a painful, horrible, sad time in America. However, most importantly it is a day your mother celebrates and will always celebrate. The birth of you. Never let what happened today overshadow the celebration of your life. Love to you and your family, Mrs. “M”
This young man of mine has something very important in store for him……his future is uncertain but all we need to do is look at the number significance in his birth, time of birth, and how old he was when the towers came down(11) to know he is meant for greatness. I don’t mean fame or fortune, something much deeper.
I will be spending the day in yoga breathing and meditation lighting candles for all who lost themselves on 9/11/01.
Happy Birthday Garrett
Happy Birthday to Garrett!
an 11 vibration is certainly something, my girlie has that 11 energy to work with too (from her birthdate and her name).
