(Author's Note: I purposely mis-spelled some of the words in this story; it is as if a child is actually writing the following letter.)
Dear World Trade Center Towers in New York City, New York:
My name is Johnathon Sandusky, and I will be nine years old in a little over 2 months, in December. I am 8 1-2 years old.
I am a New York boy (sort of). I was borned in Germany, but I was raised in NYC until I was adopted by a famly in Nashville, Tenesee. I have lived in Tenesee since I was a baby, but people say I talk like I am from New York City.
I am very sad today. You were atacked by terror-ists, and then you fell down. As a result, many people were killed.
WHY? WHY did you have to go this way?
What did America do? Why do people in other lands hate us so much? What is wrong with beleving in Jesus Christ, and what is wrong with being FREE?
I see NOTHING wrong with this!!
I saw you, World Trade Center Towers, in person 2 months ago today, and now you are GONE.
WHY??
I hope Jesus Christ is watching over you and your brother. And the people who died, and the people who tried to save those who were traped inside the buldings. I pray Jesus keeps the famlys safe, and I pray He keeps America saved.
I will also pray we never forget what happend today. EVER.
I will miss you, World Trade Center Towers, forever and ever. You will NEVER be forget forgotten!
I love America and the red, whit, and blue, and
I love NYC and the World Trade Centers, too!!
God bless America again!!
Love you,
Your Christian friend in Tenesee,
Johnathon Sandusky (8 1-2).
P.S.:
I am in a wheelchair. I have muscle dystrophy. But I was able to go ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP FLOOR by elvator! Boy, were you guys HIGH!!!!
Oh! One more thing:
I have a pictur of the WTC Towers in my bedroom. I look at them every day when I get up in the morning and when it is time for me to go to bed. I want to remeber you the way you were!!
