911DA Story: Story

My husband and I were laying in bed listening to the KQ morning show and they were talking about something that hit the World Trade Center. My husband and I were surprised and in disbelief so we turned on the television and sure enough the WTC was hit. At first they didn't know if it was a bomb or what - later they figured out that it was a plane. I was watching the TV and saw another plane hit the other tower. We kept the television on the whole time and then as the time went on...the towers fell. I was speechless, sad, all that I could do was pray for the families and the rescue workers that lost their lives. Then we saw all the death tolls. It was very depressing. I cried all day.
