I remember, nursing my baby and watching TV. Breaking news coverage interrupted, showing a plane had crashed into the tower. Then live coverage as another one flew into the second tower. It was early in the morning, and I couldn't believe what I was seeing. And all hell broke loose, and planes were down everywhere, then the towers fell.
I remember sitting and nursing my 4 month old baby, with tears streaming down my face, and trying to hide them from my 2 yr old. I had the baby blues, and the world had gone crazy, and I wondered what kind of world I had brought these children into. I wanted to turn off the TV but I couldn't, I kept waiting to see what horrible thing would happen next. I was confused and afraid and so very sad. I thought World War 3 had started.

I'll never forget this day.
We must never forget, the bravery and sacrifice and loss.

ReplyDeleteI was in school trying to figure out how to help kids cope with this. It is seared into my memory forever.
