I was brushing my teeth when the first plane hit. My first reaction is that it was a fluke. My husband was just getting up and I no sooner got the words out of my mouth that the World Trade Center had been hit by a plane when the second one hit and it all at once dawned on us that this was not a mistake and and that it was a declaration of war. We turned on the TV and sat in shock as the day's horific events unfolded. I did not know anyone who died in this tragedy of our country, but I still cry for the one's who did know them. "Let's Roll" and get our lives back to somewhat normal. However, God is in control.
