Like everyone in the world we were shocked at what happened.
The part that really got to me was that after we made it home to New Jersey, my son called me and said, dad, you need to come to our house and see your 3 yr. old grandson
He has not been sleeping well because unfortunately he saw
the plane hit the tower on TV. He wanted to know where his
grandfather was, since we had been gone on vacation. I had
given him a ride in a Cessna airplane, just a while before,
so anytime he saw plane after that he tought of me. Well
when I went to see as soon as I possibly could, he gave me the biggest hug, you have ever seen. Believe me it brought tears to my eyes to think that a 3 year old would be
affected that much. As it turned out , he slept real good
that night after being reassured that I was OK. Im hoping
that this the last nightmare he will ever witness again.
God Bless America.
