All is well here in NJ...

The hardest thing for us today is what to say/handle telling Emilie (7 yr old).

I am sad as I write this...Last year, I shared our trip to NYC, and the trip to the top of the WTC...

Tears rolling down my cheeks as I remember that day, and our trip.

I saw a few psychiatrists/psychologists on TV today talking about how, what to say to children.
Their best advise is honesty, and listen to their fears.

Emilies reaction was more of a sense of trying to understand why someone would do that, as opposed to the massive loss of life. That part I am trying to shield from here.

In my opinion, she needs to know what happened, but not the gory details.
Thoughts appreciated...
Thoughts & prayers :-(
