Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: My second child had just arrived at school. My oldest child had stayed at home saying she was ill. Their father was at work and myself(as usual) was at home with the other two children. The radio was on my usual country station. An average day in my life. Then all HELL broke loose. The radio announced a plane had hit the Trade Center building. At first I thought it was an accident, then all the proper info came in. I couldn't believe it. I was making chili for dinner that day. Good thing as you can cook it slowly without watching it much. All through the day I was glued to the TV, partly in hope and astonishment and partly in horror. One year later, I did not watch the news. I did not want to see it all again. I held my own vigil. The flags were lowered and four candles were lit. One each for the Trade Center buildings, one for the Pentagon, and one for the plane that crashed in Pennsylvania. And again I made chili for dinner.
