I was flipping through the channels looking for the kids station, and came across the news. I stopped to watch it for a few seconds and saw the second plane hit. I remember thinking...what is this? I thought it was part of a movie or something.
Up until that day I really had no clue what the twin towers were to be honest. I lead a sheltered life
Anyways... I realized pretty fast that this wasn't a movie. We were all watching the tv,including the kids. They were too young at the time to know what was going on. But we tell them about it now when they hear about it at school.
I remember feeling the world just stop when it was happening.
We could not believe what was going on..and we stayed glued to that television for the next few weeks.
