911DA Story: Story

It was the first day I was home from having my baby. A very special day taking our baby home. We were on our way to the baby's doctor and when we walked into the office the receptionist told us that a plane hit the one of the Twin Towers. The first thing I thought was it was an accident, I never thought of terrorism. After we got home from our appointment, we did learn it was terrorism. What should have been one of the best days our lives was one of the saddest we've had. It was difficult to give complete attention to my newborn baby that had various difficulties that needed my full attention, when my heart was suffering for all of the people who perished on September 11th. The one question I think over and over every day, is how could anyone be so cruel and end so many people's lives? No God would commend any such act. They will have to pay in the end.
