Where I was on 911

I was getting ready to take my 18-month-old to the library for storytime when I was about to turn the TV off. Suddenly, the news reported that a plane had crashed into the World Trade Center. I thought to myself, "Oh, that’s so sad. I hope the pilot didn’t have a medical emergency." At the time, I was eight months pregnant with Matthew, and I quickly jumped in the car. Airplanes were flying around, and they weren't allowing them to land. As I turned on the radio, I heard about the second plane crashing into the Trade Center. There was chaos all over the news. When I arrived at the library, we sat and watched the TV while our baby group kids listened to storytime. 💕

I was at work when somebody said that a plane had crashed into the world trade center. I excused myself and went to a restaurant that had a TV and witnessed the second plan crashing into the building. at that point everybody knew that this was a terrorist attack on the United States. the very sad day in history.

I was in my classroom getting ready to teach that day. A kid came running in and said to turn on the tv. We turned it on just as an airplane hit the second tower.

I was getting ready for work and watched the planes fly into the towers on the news. It was very surreal. Watching people jump to their death rather than burn alive was really awful. Then they fell. 0 survivors in the rubble.

My son was in preschool. Many of the Mom's picked up our children. I took my son home and we watched movies. I didn't want him to see the towers being hit.
