Inspiring!!

My daughter and I saw this film last night and it was amazing. After 20 years, I had forgotten how inspiring Christa was. The film brings out little known facts about Christa, and about what happened that fateful day. It was something I wanted my daughter to share with me because of Christa's amazing story. This film should be shown in every school, at every age. Today's kids won't remember this story, and everyone can learn from Christa. The film made us laugh, cry, and perhaps strive harder to reach our goals. We had a chance to meet Mary Jo and Renee at the screening, and I'd just like to say, thank you ladies for an incredible film. It was a work of art and love, and we thoroughly enjoyed it.
