Hi My name is Dominique Trujillo and I too would just like to express my deepest condolences to all the lives lost in the Sept. 11 tragedy. I know not evem words can express all the heart felt emtions our nation and world felt.
On that morning I was home on my couch with my two week old baby, after making my husbands lunch for work. I had not turned on the T.V until he called me and told me what he heard on the radio. I sat there confused , hurt & scared with my eyes filled with tears, holding my new child close. I then got up and woke my two older kids up and told them they where not going to school that day. We all sat close in the living room trying to understand what was going on. I called my parents and tried to remain calm. I wanted to believe that this was a all a accident until the truth hit when the second and third planes hit.
I am today still so emtional and reading other stories here brings trears to my eyes and a lump in my throat. I will never forget, I also will pray that now that we have all come together in this horrific event , that we all can remember and all stay together UNITED!!
