I was in bed with my 6 day old baby girl when my boyfriend called form the golf course that morning to tell me what he had just witnessed on tv. I didn't know what to say-it was awful, I turned the tv on to see what was happening. I watched in horror as another plane crashed into the other building of the world trade center. I called my sister in law to see if she knew what was going on and we just couldn't get over what was happening right before us on tv.
All I could do was cry, and hold my baby close and wonder what kind of world I had just brought her into, and think about how unfair life can be.
