10 Years ago on September 11, 2001 We as Americans witnessed one of the biggest tragedies ever known to us. I can't say that I was alive or old enough to remember any other tragedy to the US in my 35 years but I will never foreget about this day!
You hear it all the time Where were you? And what were you doing? Can you answer these questions? I can with complete confideince that I know where I was and exactly what I was doing at the exact moment the first plane crashed into the Twin Towers in NYC. Alan Jackson had a song "Where were you the day the world stopped turning". It is an Awesome song and if you haven't heard you really need to check it out.
I was working at AAA Mini storage, and we had a small 13" TV in the waiting room. I was waiting to take my son which was 3 years old at the time, to his pre-school program when the news came across the TV. It was on every local channel and a horrific sight to everyone. I remember my son asking what happened to the TV momma, and I really had no real response to give him. I wasn't sure myself I think, it just didn't seem like it was real. It was almost like I was just watching a really bad movie on TV.
I welcome any comments or stories you have to share from this day! Sorry for such a short post but this is one is difficult to write without getting all teary eyed!
