What were YOU doing on 9/11 ?

Wow! Can you even believe that it is 9/11 ?

I was sitting in my 2nd grade classroom when I learned about the horrific events of the day. It was before the kids got there and all of us teachers were in the library around the TV. It was awful. The bell rang and we had to go back to class and pretend that everything was fine in order to not scare the kids. It was a nauseating day. We had a TV in the lunch room where I remember watching the towers fall. By the end of the day I think I had maybe 8 of my 24 kids left in my classroom. I remember about 3 days of pure mourning with the nation. I, along with Jake, were glued to the TV watching the planes hit and towers fall over and over and over again!

What were YOU doing when you found out? Please make comments!
