I think most Americans are reflecting on 9/11/2001 today. Like everyone else, I remember exactly where I was, what I was doing, and who I was with. I also remember the numbness I felt inside. Once the initial shock wore off, I felt a surge of patriotism. My grandmother gave me this pin when I was a little girl. I'm not exactly sure of the year, but I know it was before I was 10, because that's how old I was when she died. I dug it out of my jewelry box and wore it proudly for a long time after 9/11. I thought it only fitting to wear it again today.
