911DA Story: Story

I was working and heard the horrible news from my best friend who also worked with me. My co-workers and I were all devistated to hear of the tragity that was happening.
all I could think of was my Little boy who was with his sitter and that I needed to get to him as soon as possible.
He was safe but, I just needed to be close to him. For some reason it was more comforting to be able to hold him.

I also could not stop thinking about the child I was carrying at the time, who is now a little over four months old. I just kept thinking, how is this going to effect thier future? Hopeing to be able to give them a good life and to help them be good, responsable people all parents want thier children to be. Also wondering if they would ever understand the true meaning of what really happened that day and why,when I don't even really understand it myself.

I will always remember the horrer all of those people went through. GOD BLESS THOSE WHO SUFFERED AND THIER FAMILIES!

My family sure is thinking of them always and forever.
