Our pre-school coordinator had come in to tell me (we were an hour behind EST) a plane had hit one of the Twin Towers. I saw the 2nd plane hit. Even when the kids came, I couldn't turn the TV off. We were having morning prayer time - all heads were supposed to be bowed, but one little girl was watching the muted screen. "It's falling," she cried out and my eyes opened to see the first tower falling. Those kids are in the 11th grade now - what the children of the world have had to witness in their lives!Grahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09384895311409271443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8707333186803278314.post-69427174498556678202008-09-12T22:55:00.000-04:002008-09-12T22:55:00.000-04:00I was in college.

I don't know if it's because they were fixed on the TV for so long, or because they were tear-burned, or because I was trying to understand, too.laurazimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07740164378856454831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8707333186803278314.post-76049892460199245952008-09-12T10:40:00.000-04:002008-09-12T10:40:00.000-04:00Something so terrible really does defy understandi...Something so terrible really does defy understanding.
