...today....

As adults, we wept. For everything that this place represents. Loss. Gratitude. Hope. 
But through Shawna's eyes, we saw happiness. And pride.
She didn't see what we saw… or even feel as we felt. 
She courageously showed the scars of her heart, a physical mark that metaphorically tells so much of her story. She smiled boldly. She was confident. And we all were proud.
