It is hard to believe that seven years have gone by since the towers fell. I remember it like it was yesterday. Becca called and told us to turn the Today show on-they were showing live coverage of the first tower that had been hit. As we watched, speechless, I remember thinking this has to be a joke! This is AMERICA land of the FREE home of the BRAVE! Why in the world would someone purposefully KILL themselves and thousands of other innocent people?? I still question that. Then the second tower was hit-it was like a bad dream that just kept getting worse-and it did! The towers fell, and the world cried. As Alan Jackson said so well-where were you when the world stopped turning??
Just one month before we had gone to New York to visit A's brother Dustin (who worked in the towers) I was 8 months pregnant with Bailia-Jaden had just turned one. It was a VERY spur of the moment trip and we WALKED forever wanting to see everything we could on our quick trip! Looking back thinking about standing on top of the 110 story tower, I get chills. I am so grateful that we took the trip to experience New York before the towers fell. I am thankful that Dustin was not there that day. My heart goes out to those who still suffer from this devastating day, and hope that a day like 9/11 will NEVER happen again!
