Today is a day that will live in the memories of Americans forever.
Everyone has their own personal stories and feelings.
Sept. 11, 2001
I remember sitting on the couch with Brendan,1 month old that day, laying on my legs,
smiling up at me. So innocent.
Watching the t.v. when the breaking news flashed across the screen.
I sat there in disbelief. It looked like a scene from a movie, but this was for real.
I remember looking down at Brendan with tears in my eyes thinking to myself.
I remember calling Mike at work and him not believing me.
He knew from the tone in my voice it was true...
I wanted to run for sheltar not knowing where next something would happen.
Would this be the end? I put my faith in gods hands that day.
Still wondering to myself, "What kind of a world have I brought my son into?"
As I continued to watch and see the 2nd plane hit. I burst into tear thinking who would do this?
and why?
Praying that I would change the channel and this was all just a mistake.
As those towers fell and dust and debris flew through the city I knew this was the day things were about to change.
That was the day that my life changed.
I will always remember the people who lost their lives
and always be proud of my country.
GOD BLESS THE USA...
