Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: We were watching Good Morning America when the second plane hit the tower.I immediately calloed my husband who is a security guard at a Nuclear Plant,they had not heard about the planes.They got in touch with their officals and went on high alert.I had to go take my son to our local technical college.We listened to our radio.I was so scared and crying.I did not know if I should still take my son or not.But they did have classes.I met a friend of mine and she told me her church was having a prayer vigil,so like the song"I went to a church and held hands with some strangers".I got my cell phone and called my husband and finally got him,I was crying and told him how scared I was,and worried for him.Thank GOD he came home safe but for weeks after,he had to wear a bullet proof vest and he carried a M16.When I saw a picture a local business magazine had taken of him,THAT was really scary. I was so nervous I had to something with my hands,so I made braided Red,White and Blue strips.Some people used them as bible markers,some used them on their security badges,one guard wanted a belt.I even made some for President Bush and his wife.I took them to Richard Bakers office(our Senator)and his office mailed them to Washington.The President sent me a very nice Thank You letter.I even gave two New York firemen that our town had as guest,a couple of the braided stips.I sent them a note saying as the colors are entwined So are our Hearts with theirs.
