Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: My husband was getting ready for work here in Arizona which is 3 hours behind New York time. I was asleep with my 2 year old daughter in her bedroom. I was 7 months pregnant with our second child. My husband quietly woke me up saying I might want to see what was on TV. I was watching when the second plane hit. I hadn't had alot of sleep but spent most of the day watching CNN. My husband wanted very much to stay home from work but he had been sick the week before and didn't want to use more sick days. He works for a financial investment company so we weren't sure if he would get off early due to the stock market situation. I recorded the first few days of news coverage onto VHS. We were fortunate enough to have not lost anyone in any of the three tragedies on 9/11/1. However, my husband had just spoken with someone there the previous day in the course of his work. This year on 9/11/2 my husband, daughters, brother-in-law and I flew to Ohio to visit his Grandparents. The air fare was less expensive so we were grateful to be able to afford the trip. His Grandmother doesn't get out of the house much so is not able to travel here to see us. This was the first time she saw her new Grandaughter and second time for our oldest. Since we were flying on 9/11 we weren't able to see many rememberance specials but I recorded the Larry King Live Weekend edition that interviewed different people who lost a loved one in the attacks. I hope our nation is able to better defend us in the future from further terror attacks and count my blessings for what I have daily.
