This was interesting reading all of your stories of where you were on "that day." It's one that was felt by all the world.

Tuckervill, I watched that History channel documentary. I cried the whole time. It seems so long ago, yet just like yesterday. It still makes me sad to think of all the families who lost loved ones. So sad.


I was teaching 5th graders. A teacher across the hall knocked on my door and told me that the country was under attack and NYC had been hit. I was in the middle of Math, so I just said "um, OK," and went back to teaching. It didn't sink in what she had said until my break when I went to the office and saw the t.v. Parents started withdrawing their kids from school for the day shortly after.

A woman who I worked with lost her son. It was heartbreaking to watch her and her husband go through what they did. His younger brother has since gone into politics to try and make this a better and safer place to live.
