There are some events that are so horrific that you remember every exact detail of what you were doing when it happen. I will never forget being at my desk at work and a co-worker telling me that her sister just called her and told her that one of the twin towers had been hit by a plane. As my co-worker and I listened to the TV through her phone we heard that the second tower had been hit and was a possible terrorist attack. I began to panic because that morning I had kissed my husband goodbye before he had left the house heading to the Atlanta Airport on a business trip to Vancouver. Unfortunately I had not made a copy of his itinerary and had no idea what plane or carrier he was on. The unknowing of if he was ok literally broke me. I finally got the call that he was ok and that his plane had been grounded and he would be driving home from Austin, Texas. Thank God he was safe! While I only felt the horror of losing him for only a short period of time, I prayed for all the families of all the innocent victims of this unspeakable attack who will never again be able to kiss those they love. I still can not imagine what those families have gone through. I would also like to take this moment to thank all those men and women who have sacrificed so much for me and my family. God Bless You!
