Like many of you, I stood in disbelief those early hours of September 11, 2001 trying to wrap my head and heart around what was happening. Not only did I personally go into shock, but also as a country, we were completely devastated. Since that time, I believe, in many ways, we have moved...

On the morning of September 11, 2001, I was at home with my three year-old daughter. My 5 year-old was off to school. I didn’t turn the TV on yet as I had been busy getting one off to school and playing with the other one. My best friend called me to tell me...
