I was seeing my now husband off to work. This particular moringin I actually stayed up (usually I would go back to sleep). I turned on KTVU news (which I do every morning) and saw something unimagiable. A plane hit World Trade Center. It was crazy and amazing. By this time everyone was spectulating that I was an accident,etc. Until I saw the second plane hit, and I knew something was seriously wrong. I got the kids up and proceeded to go to work, with a fastily beating heart and nerves. I didn't want to frighten the kids, so I took them to school. I proceeded to work and the bus, but it seemed like no one else knew what went on but me. When I got to work, I was informed from a co worker that a 3rd plane hit the pentagon. I received a call from my kids school that parents needed to pick up there children since America was under attack. When I got home, I explained to my kids what happened and they understood. Thank God for Nick Jr. channel it was the only one that wasn't broadcasting the attacks. 9/11/01 is a day I will NEVER forget.
