I was in my classroom teaching my children the significance of 911 and the correlation to the day's date. Then suddenly a colleague came into the classroom and told me to turn on the television to view the news.

I was at work when we first heard about it. I left home, thinking this was no big deal and when arrived I was just in time to see the first building collapsing.
This is a picture I will never forget. But now when I reflect on it everything that happened since I find myself thinkin
