    I just got this in my email and thought it was worth posting here for all to see. Hope you like it as much as I did...............

    >It was late one Tuesday evening, before a mother could sit down,
    >to tell her only child about the terror that hit downtown.
    >She looked into the eyes of her son, God she loved him so,
    >she felt her heart begin to break and the hurt begin to show.
    >
    >She gathered all her strength and courage, as her story she began to
    >tell.
    >"Baby don't cry, but I'm afraid daddy might be under a building that
    >fell.
    >"The boy looked back at his mother, His eyes made not one blink.
    >And the mother's tears began to fall. What would her baby think?
    >You see, his dad is a firefighter, and his hero from the day of his
    >birth.
    >He loved his dad more than anything else that could ever inherit this
    >earth.

    >The mother's head began to drop, her resting on palm.
    >She thought her son would be upset. Instead, he was very calm.
    >The boy leaned over towards his Mom, and put his hand upon her head.
    >In her ear he began to whisper, and this is what he said:
    >
    >"Mommy please don't cry, I knew daddy wasn't coming home.
    >I talked to him just a while ago, But it wasn't on the phone.
    >He told me that he loved me, and he promised we'd meet again.
    >He told of his new home, and the job he was to begin."
    >
    >"God is building an army, and there are many angels needed.
    >That, is where daddy and the others went. They weren't all defeated."
    >It was then, the mother lifted her head. The tears streamed down her
    >face.
    >And she could feel her husband's presence, as it filled her heart with
    >grace.
    >
    >It was then she knew her son was right. He was in God's great army now.
