This evening Jason and I had the opportunity to visit the Memorial sight for the 12 lives lost at Century 16 Theater on July 20th. 12 Crosses. 12 pictures. Hundreds of flowers. Notes. Singing. Candles. Stuffed animals. Words can not describe. Looking across the street, Century 16 Theater is visible. Blocked off.
Flags are still lowered. President Obama had the nation lower Flags for 5 days and our Governor has them lowered indefinitely here in Colorado. Every time I see our Nations Flag and our Colorado Flag lowered, I am reminded of a Country and a State who mourns for our hurting neighbors.
My kids and I do much of our shopping in that very shopping center. I will forever remember those lives when we are there.
Missy Franklin. Olympic swimmer. From: Aurora Colorado. How neat it is to see her on T.V. and know that she is adding a glimmer of happiness to Colorado.
