I like many others was watching the news report about the first tower being hit, when I saw the second plane hit the tower. I could not believe what I was seeing, the first thing I thought about was my children and my husband and were they ok, I like many other parents chose to pick my kids up from school early that day. I next thought about all the people that were taken from this world for no good reason at all. I so wanted to go there and see if I could help, but I new that this was impossible for me to do. I also thought that I could help by praying, praying that they would be able to find most if not all of the people. My heart went out to the families and loved ones of all the people that died,and it still does. My heart was very heavy and the nightmares were awful. Sept 11th 2001 is a day that will be forever in my mind. I hung a flag in my window at the front of my house for all of my neighbors to see and that flag is still there.
