911DA Story: Story

My day started out in the usual way, getting my grandkids ready for school and dropping them off. I came home,read the newspaper and then went on my computer.Around 9:10am my sister came on and IM'd me and asked me if I had the tv on(which I didn't) and she told me to turn it on.When I did I saw the one tower burning and then I saw the replay of the second plane hitting tower two.I thought I was watching a movie it was just so unreal! Then I heard that terriorists had put the planes into the towers on purpose. I just sat and cried I could not believe what just happened. In the days that followed I watched as the Firemen.policemen and all the other people trying to clean everything up I could not imagine what they were going through all the pain,sorrow and devastion they must have went through. Being a Christian I know that God was with each and every innocent person that gave their lives that day and now a year later we remember all those people and their families and how proud God is that they sacrificed their lives for their country and the American people. May God continue to keep us all safe.
