911DA Story: Story

I remember Sept. 11th being a beautiful day in San Diego. I was getting ready for work when my husband came running into the house yelling for me. He had just heard on the radio that an airplane had flown into the WTC. I couldn't even comprehend what he was talking about. We watched on television as the 2nd plane crashed into the WTC. It didn't seem real. It was as if we were watching a movie on tv. I felt like I was dreaming and I remember being 4 months pregnant wondering if I should be bringing a child into this crazy world!
