Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: When my two year old daughter turned on our tv we were just getting up and moveing it took both my husband and i a moment to relize that the cartoons we normally listened to were being replaced by the news. My daughter told me that the tv was broken. We went into the living room just in time to see the second plane hit the second tower. For me it was life changing for my husband it was life shatering as september 11 is his birthday. that day i think was the first day he relized that the world was made up of more than just our little town and our lives. For me it was worse as the day wore on. First i called my mom in seatle and told her to turn on the t.v. we both whatch in horror as the towers fell and the pentagon was hit it was after we hung up that we heard about the fourth plane. it was then that i relized i needed to try to call my sister in paris. I knew she was suposed to fly in that week but i couldn't remember which day. when i finially got a hold of her she told me that her fiance saved her life that was when we heard that she was suposed to be on the second plae that hit the second tower. I thank god every day that her fiance had to work that day and that he delayed her trip, but its still sobering to know that had he not i would have sat in my safe home in indiana and whatched in horror as the plane carring my sister flew into the south tower and might never have seen her agian. I still wake up every morning a nd thank god that she is still here and that i'll be able to see her agian. For my small family september 11 truly is a celabration of life, god and hope.Now not only do we have a birthday party we have a life party. My husband is now learning a new way to share and as a family we found a new faith in god.
