On this 20th Anniversary... lest we never forget.....

I will never forget the feeling of not understanding what I was seeing on TV. Even when I recall that day - a horrid feeling comes to me - it was a day filled with such sadness and fear.
One of my brothers was working at the Dirkson Building near the Capital and I wondered if I would ever see him again. My husband was a consultant and flew all the time. He had actually flown on one of those flights just weeks before. Even today, I don't like to recollect that.
That week, he was in Delaware and It took him almost 3 weeks to finally get to fly home. When our 4 kiddos and I went to pick him up at the airport - there were uniformed military with assault rifles at the entrance of the airport and all four kids got so upset seeing the guns. I remember doing my best to calm them down, but I could feel a panicky feeling in my stomach too. Our reunion was filled with relief and tears all around to finally have him home. We knew how lucky and blessed we were.

I think that where ever we live we all remember the day and the time that we heard what was happening. I had spent the day with a dear friend.

My Great Niece was born 8 yrs ago on this day and Jim's mom passed the same day.......was a very tragic day with one bright spot!

I can certainly never forget. My hubby had been assigned to an Asian country for a year 5 weeks before and we had just left the DC area. It was a terrible time since I was teaching, living without my hubby and he was a 1/2 a world away and not knowing when I would be able to hear from him. And that is only a small part of the story. But we both survived and reunited. May the people stand strong and pray and withstand the evil of this world.

How can we ever forget. I am sure there are millions of us who remember exactly where we were when the terrible news started to come in. Thinking of you all in America today.

My sister in law that passed away with cancer, called me that morning and asked if I was watching tv. I said no then she said turn it on. I don’t think I turned it off that day.

I don't think I will ever forget. Some images are burned in my sole
