A Day to Remember

September 11, 2001 was a beautiful, sunny September morning. I had a nice bike ride through the Great Swamp and thankfully chose to work at home that day.

Six years later, I'd hoped for another bike ride but it was a rainy September morning instead. Somehow fitting. I remember calling my wife and telling her that a plane hit the building next to mine and then minutes later calling back to tell her that a plane hit my building. I remember seeing my kids come out of school that day and being thankful to see them, although they were confused that so many parents were there to greet them. I remember being thankful that our entire office got out safely and I remember that so many others were lost, including one of our own from Sun - Phil Rosenzweig.

But mostly, I remember to be thankful for what we have.
