And we were quite removed from it -- imagine how New Yorkers feel, let alone those who lost loved ones. PTSD for sure. BTW, I had the chance to visit the Flight 93 Memorial last month -- had been there when it was a makeshift thing, but not since. It is also quite moving. They did a nice job with it, with more to come. chris h.http://www.writingbyear.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7663468186545705233.post-18991544608821111852012-09-12T12:46:27.708-04:002012-09-12T12:46:27.708-04:00Marcus hasn't seen pics or vids yet either. No...Marcus hasn't seen pics or vids yet either. Not big, clear ones, anyway. I know the impact that footage had on me, and I'd rather wait until I feel more certain that he's ready to face something so monumentally upsetting.

And I kept it simple: Some bad people drove planes into some building in NYC and many people died. As she has gotten older (4th grade now), I tell her a little bit more. I still don't think she has ever seen a picture, and I am okay with that as she is very sensitive. <br /><br />I am going to write another 9/11 post right now about my thoughts on people remembering and what I did, FYI.Faciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12165861407055831754noreply@blogger.com
