Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was walking students to a class, as I was leaving them with the vice principle I had a teacher pull me aside and tell me a plane had just hit the World Trade Center. I did not quite understand what was going on until I walk into the media center. A small group of teachers were standing around a television set with a look of horror on their faces. As I watched the pictures a sense of absolute dread came over me. I just couldn't believe this was happening. The next thing we were watching was about two more planes that had been hijacked and that one had crashed into the Pentagon. I live very close to Ft. Meade, a military base, and knew that alot of friends and neighbors may not be home that evening. I went and called my husband, Tim, to tell him what was happening. We were both happy to know that the other one was alright. After a quick discussion we decided that we should let the children stay in school. As we each came home one by one that afternoon we embraced each other and said I love you. As we continued to watch the news coverage that evening all we could do is wonder why. Through many tears we said prayers for all those whose lives were touched by this horrific act.
