911DA Story: Story

I turned on the Today Show like every other morning. I heard Katie Couric speaking about the crash into the Towers and thought, that's strange why is she talking about 1993 all over again. When all of a sudden, I sat down to eat breakfast, I realized, no this is today and it's happening right now. I immediately called my older sister to tell her thank God she doesn't work there anymore b/c it is being bombed.

AS the day progressed, my 3 month old and me sat and watched and watched... totally disbelief. Dreadfully sorry for those who died, those who lost their loved ones... In fact, one year later, I'm still crying over the events of that day. Wished it obviously never happened.

I'm in awe of our President and of Mayor Guilani. I think their resolve and strength has been a tremendous help in getting our Nation together and keeping us moving forward to a better, safer country.

God Bless our Country and God Bless those families.. I pray for you all.
