September 10th I had given two co-workers their travel advances for a NY business trip. September 11th my phone kept waking me from my sleep. After answering, I was brought to realization by an employee, I had no idea of the attacks on America. It was two days before I ever found my friends were well in NY and had been staying two blocks from the WTC towers when attacked. I thank god every night. Something I used to take for granted, I am quick to remember how lucky I am! I have since tought my 4 year old to give thanks every night for our family, our friends and our country!
