Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: My husband and I were getting our children ready for school. We turned on the television and could not believe our eyes. We may be in Canada, but it was unbelievable. We watched from two minutes after the first plane struck, saw the second plane and then had to take our kids to school. My husband was off work that week, and we watched continuously. The t.v. did not even go off at night. I have collected as much paraphenalia as I could, pictures, songs, emails, everything possible. We drove past the airport and all we could see were all the military planes lined up, which sent chills up my spine. Many songs, a year from now will stop me in my tracks and bring tears to my eyes. Today, one year later, the t.v. has not changed off CNN as of 6am this morning, even my children have watched. I have had tears in my eyes most of the day. One thing that I will never forget, was this was called "The day the world stopped", and it really did. We have a great view of the moon out our back door, and we went outside a few times that night, 9/11/01, and something that was very eerie, was the moon, in 6 hours, never moved, it stayed in the same spot, pinpointed between two trees. I will never forget that or anything else that has happened, it has been burned into our memory for the rest of our lives. If I could send my heart for anyone or everyone in New York, I would.
