Where were you when the world stopped turning that September day?

Today is the 10th Anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the United States.  10 years ago today 2 planes flew into the World Trade Center, 1 plane drove into the Pentegon and 1 plane flew into an open feild in PA!  Almost 3000 lives were taken that day, which includes NYC Firefighters, Police Officers, and thousands of civilian workers who were trying to go about their daily business.

The images of that day will forever be burnwed in my mind.  I remember exactly where I was an exactly what I was doing.  I was at home snuggling on the couch with my baby boy Noah and the little boy Logan, that I watched every day.  I very vividly remember getting  phone calls from my husband and mother asking me if I saw that a plane flew into the World Trade Center.  I remember turning on the tv and watching the repeating videos of the first plane hitting the first tower, then the second plane hitting the second tower.  I remember watching the two towers collapse.  I remember the overwhelming feelings of shock, sadness and every other negative emotion you could possibly think of.  I was glued to the tv for days!

Today as I remember everything that happened on 09/11/2001 and the days and weeks that followed, I have feeling of love, pride and greatfulness.  Today I am thankful for all of the people in my life.  Each person that I know has made an impact on my life and helped shape me into the person that I am today.  I have learned to never take my friends and family for granted, because are never guarenteed that there will be a tomorrow...
