Do your schools talk about it? I'm curious.
Maddi brought it up at dinner last night, and she's only 6, so they are definately talking about it at school. Molli was in kindergarten in 2001.
I'm not sad about Emily starting school. I'm excited for her. Walked her right into the classroom.
That's cause she's YOU. Miss Independence.
Sad about Nick. It was not an easy morning. He was useless, I snapped, I apologized, but he's hurt/annoyed and I think I had a point about his uselessness.
Yes!!! Yes, to pointing it out. Yes, to being sad about the whole exchange.
9/11 - I'm not sobbing, which is vast improvement of previous years. It's so unreal to me that 8 years ago I was on the train, on that perfect sunny day, wondering how a fire could look like that. And then I got off the train, walked up to my office in Times Square, and there it was, on the huge TVs. But the time I unlocked my door, we knew it was planes but not much more. And gathered in the conference room, watching, working the phones and IM to see where my friends were.
My life is so different now - and so are the lives of my friends who were there, and one of the women I know who lost her husband. Out of all my friends, only three are still working at the same place - taking those same trains in. But, today, they get to come home like normal. Thank God.
