NMAH Story: Story

On Sept 11, I thought my day would be the same. I had only been up for about 20 mins when my husband called and asked me if I had turned on the television and I told him no. He then told me a plane had hit the World Trade Center, but I told him not to be joking with me like that. Then I asked him was this a way you are telling me Happy Anniversary. We were celebrating our 2nd wedding anniversary, He told me to turn and the tv and that is when I realized he was telling me the truth. As I watched the events unfold I could not believe my eyes. That night as I klwent to work that was all I heard about and it made me really sad about all the lives that had been take on such a short notice.

NMAH Story: Life Changed

My life has changed because I have realized that I have a wonderful life. Also that God is watching over me so that I can live my life " in the land of the free".

NMAH Story: Remembered

I think it should be made a national holiday so that we can honor those that lost their lives so that we can continue to live in this great nation that we have.

NMAH Story: Flag

Yes we flew an American flag outside our house and on our cars.
