On the way to work i heard something on the radio about a plane hitting the first WTC building and then at work I was listening to the radio and I heard about the second plane hitting but everyone thought it was an accident.I couldn't hear much because where I worked was very noisy.Then when the Pentagon got hit we all stopped and listened to the radio they said it was terrorists but I guess I didn't really believe them.I went to my doctor's appointment where I was met by my husband.He had just woken up and didn't know anything about what was going on.As we sat in the waiting room we watched CNN and I was just blown away.I'd had no idea it was that bad.All i could think was how could anybody be that cruel? We were called into the doctor's office a few moments later where we heard our baby's heartbeat for the forst time.
