Where Were You?

Where Were You?

Like the song in the video says, I was teaching innocent children that day~ 9 years ago. My principal went room to room telling us teachers that the trade center "had been bombed." That was the first thought that morning. I remember watching the news the rest of the day after I got home and the horror and sadness this country felt. It still makes me sad. This video is such a beautiful tribute. Thanks, Linda for sharing this. I'm sure you don't mind that I borrowed it.

  1. I was at work as a Teacher's Aide and VUE. The librarian came and told us that a plane had crashed into the WTC. I remember thinking surely it was a small jet. Once I heard of the other one. I wanted to get out of there so bad and get home to watch the news. I remember many moms coming to check out their children just wanting to be near them. Very sad memories.

  2. I was at OBU in Arkadelphia. someone told me that mroning on my way to class, and I also thought it was a small jet, and knew nothing of the details. A little later on, in chapel, we were all informed of the details known and the seriousness of the matter. There was such a quiet sadness in chapel as all of the students thought of te tragedy Also- everyone was rushing to by gas, etc- thinking there could possibly be other terror issues on the way.
