Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: My two year old twin daughters and I were laughing and singing along to their favorite Blue's clues tape, when I heard a frantic pounding on our door. My mother-in-law had come from next door to tell me that a plane had just hit the world trade center. I turned on the t.v. just moments before the second tower was hit. My heart broke as I realized along with the rest of America that this was a terroist attack. My thoughts immediately went to my husband who was doing construction at Fort Riley, about an hour's drive from here. I called and he said that he would be home as soon as they could, becuase they were locking down the base. I held my children close and prayed for everyone in New York, and then Washington, and finally Penn. We might be far away from the action itself, but when those towers fell, we heard and felt it here in Kansas. As my children grow, I can teach them about the brave men and women who gave their lives so that others might live. I can show them what the real consequences of hate. I can let them learn of the importance of freedom and our country by honoring the memory of those who died on September 11, 2002. May God bless this country and all those around the world who felt the pain of this country.
