It's probably occurred to every parent in the last six years. But when 9/11 happened we were less than a month away from having our first child and just two months past the death of one of his grandmothers. Truly, it was a moment when I thought, what kind of world are we bringing a kid into? Of course, now I think it every day as the War drags on and the US government seems incapable of imagining a political solution for anything.
Regardless of what happened that year, and the actual horror it was for those whose family and friends died on 9/11, 2001 was the year the BB was born and the year that his grandmother just missed seeing her first grandchild.
