Carter & Naomi: 2 years old
Andrew: 0 years old
Marshall: 3 years old

Today was the day that will forever be burned into our memories. It was the day that terrorism attacked the United States. Two commercial jets flew into the World Trade Center causing them to collapse. Another commercial jet was flown into the Pentagon causing part of that building to collapse and yet another commercial jet was flown into the ground in Pennsylvania. It’s believed that the death toll will be in excess of 5,000.

I posted this personal picture that I took on March 9, 1996, the day after John and I were engaged, as my way of remembering all the family and friends that lost someone in this tragedy. I stood between the towers looking up and the view was breath taking. The twins seemed to reach into the heavens. I cannot imagine anyone wanting to destroy those works of art and further more wanting to destroy so many lives. Yet as the story unfolds, there were 19 hijackers between the four planes who had such desires. That level of hatred is beyond my comprehension!
