Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I am a working mother of two small children. We had just gotten back from our vacation to Ocean City, MD and I had taken an additional week off to relax with the kids and unpack. The kids and I, of course, we watching a movie when my husband called and said have you seen the news. I said no, we have been having breakfast while watching a movie and the kids were still in their pjs. I turned the channel on and thought I had just turned it to a violent movie. My children were 1 and 2 1/2 at the time and never realized that watching these images on TV would have an impact on them. But it did. My son kept asking what was wrong with the building and why did it have a boo-boo? We quickly realized that these images were just so unbelievable. To this day, I still can't believe it isn't just a horrible movie. Some of my family members have gone to ground zero, they have said every american should visit it just to understand the magnitude, loss, devistation and reality of it all. Someday, when my children are older, I do plan to visit ground zero memorial park when its developed and explain the devistation that has occurred on that day.
