He ended up coming on the announcements, and our teacher turned on the TV as we watched the second tower get hit, and the towers fall to the ground. I also remember walking home that day, and that it was a completely cloudless day, and how strange it was to see no planes.<br /> Danielle @ A Sprinkle of Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10860364368632056324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8683468931054211240.post-48677073893138080112018-09-12T20:11:12.360-04:002018-09-12T20:11:12.360-04:00You are so right.

I sat frozen as they cut to clips of the planes hitting with tears streaming down my face. My husband had just come back from a run and I could barely speak. I composed myself enough to call my Mom and tell her you better wake Daddy who was a photographer at our local paper. As I cradled my milk drink baby I told my husband his world will never be the same.

I was pregnant with Dillon and just remember driving to work as the first plane struck. Once I got to work we were watching as the 2nd plane plowed into the bldg and I remember how solemn everyone was but nothing at all prepared us for seeing those bldgs crumble.

She was screaming and crying running up and down our hallways. I tried explaining things to the boys this morning since it was all over the radio, but the reality is, they just won't have the same feelings towards it as we do.

I was a senior at LSU in my super early media research class and then walked into my media lab class and the teacher had CNN on and we watched the second plane hit. The guy next to me said, "I bet it was that Bin Laden guy" I had never heard that name before and still to this day some 21 year old kid knew that. My grandparents were in New York and flying home that day and we were so scared for them. They were safe thank goodness.

I think they turned the TVs on for us, and a classmate of mine - her mom was on a flight that day, going to Atlanta actually, and there was a period of time when we didn't really know what was going on, and just hoping that she was ok!<br /><br />One of my co-workers now, was actually one of the first on scene. To hear her talk about it, just gives you chills.a little bit of emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08944620326344142962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8683468931054211240.post-11571762627741681082018-09-11T09:02:13.241-04:002018-09-11T09:02:13.241-04:00I remember so many details from that day as well. ...I remember so many details from that day as well.

I had a TV in my office at work, I saw and I immediately ran down the hall to my mom's office just to oddly make sure she was ok because I was that scared. Then called the sitter.

Later, we learned the gravity of the situation. Our professor later sent an email apologizing that had she known the extent of what happened she would have canceled lecture. I also remember when classes resumed , I was in Spanish class and a pair of fighter jets flew right over us and the class went silent with fear. Our teacher looked at us and stopped class and asked if we wanted to continue. I remember going into my sorority house and watching news coverage all day. Such a tragic day. Thank you for remembering such a horrific day in our history and pausing to reflect.

I don't even think I ever thought about terrorists or a danger on our own soil before that date. I was a high school teacher pregnant with my first baby when it happened.
