....all the moms went and picked our kids up from school. We all cried together and held each other.
Trying to explain it to the kids was tough. The world changed that day and they'll never really know how it was before that. Post 9/11 is all they've known.
What I remember is that it was such a crystal clear beautiful day for such horrible consequences. The worst part was watching people jumping from the towers rather than stay in there and burn up. Ghastly. RIP 911 victims, especially the heroes of Flight #93 in PA, who saved our capitol building (or White House) from a potentially terrible fate.
