Full Description & Details

While playing outside as 10 year olds often do, I had been called by my mother to come in and get ready for bed. As most 10 Yr. olds do, I stalled for as long as I could without testing my her patience. After another ten minutes i decided I should head in the house. After leaving the back yard heading for the front door I was rounding the front left corner of the house when this object caught my attention. There I stood in my front yard in disbelief to what I was seeing. I can remember thinking, What in the world is it? My emotions were changing from confused to frightened and back to confused again. After staring intensely for a few minutes I ran as fast as I could in a great panic to the front door trying desperatly to open the door. When I finally pushed my way into the house I didn't know what to say or how to say it so I just told my Mother to come quick and look at this! She must have known by the look on my face and my expression that this was going to be worth while because she didn't waste any time going to the front door. I was too scared to go with her. When she stepped onto the porch I remember asking her, do you see it? do you see it? I told her to look above the neighbors house straight across the street. I was standing just inside the front door not wanting to see it again but hoping I would. I saw my Mother step closer to the edge of the porch so her veiw wasn't obstructed by the roof over our porch. She stood there looking for at least a few minutes as I was waiting for her response. She then turned back towards me as to come back into the house and I was asking her again and again if she had seen it. Her first response was in a trembling voice, NO! I didn't see it. She turned and quickly open the storm door and that's when I decided I was going to look once again but, she blocked me with all she had from going back out. She grabbed my hand away from the door and closed and locked it. I was insisting that we look again but she was demanding that I would not. I could tell by her actions she had seen something. I was not going to bed without a second look so I waited untill she sat back down at the TV and then I raced towards the front door. Every step I took my mother was yelling at me to stop but I couldn't. I had to see it again. I reached the front door and unlocked it with my heart racing like never before. I slung open the storm door and stepped to the edge of the porch for my second look only to see the night sky. I felt anger flowing through me. It had disappeared. I remember walking back through the house seeing my Mother double checking the locks on the front door. I was so disapointed my Mother wouldn't say anything about it except, what ever it was, it's gone now so you can go to bed. I didn't sleep much that night. The next day I couldn't wait to go out side in the morning and check things out. I knew it wasn't a dream. I searched the skys and the neighborhood for clues but found nothing. I knew if I asked Mother again if she had seen it she would probably deny that she had, so I tried using reverse psychology and tricking her into admitting she had seen it. I said to her, I couldn't belive she didn't see that helicoptor over the neighbors house last night. Her response was, That wasn't a helicoptor. I knew then she had seen it. You couldn't belive what I felt when she said that. It was like a national news flash with everyone's undivided attention. I began asking her for details as if my life depended on it. I knew what I had seen and I was comparing her details with mine. I suggested to her we should report what we had seen but she said she didn't know what it was and nobody would care. We didn't report our sighting to the athorities but I told all of my freinds and family. Most everyone I told thought I was exaggerating or just flat out telling a lie untill my Mother confirmed my truth.To my knowledge my Mother and I are the only ones' who saw anything that night because I have never heard of any other reports from that event. It seemed like I never thought about that night again for fifteen years and then in my mid 20's in a weird moment I found myself remembering it all over again. Not sure what to think I began living those moments as if I were trying to assure myself what I had witnessed that night. I found myself once again asking my Mother to confirn what we had seen. Again her details matched mine as if it happened only yesterday. I thought it was so weird not to have mention that night for so long and all of the sudden talking about it again. After writing this description of our sighting I asked her again tonight to recall what we had seen. Our details matched. My Mother is 81 years old as of November the 29th, 2004 and still remembers the details as if it were yesterday. I decided to document our story on video for personal reasons but, if someone should find this story needing to be told to a larger audience, perhaps in a book, Then I would consider the full story for personal gain. What you have read in this report may reflect what you have read in others but in the full report i can guarantee you have not read in others. In the full report are several events that took place that night and the day after. What ever this object was is yet to be known. As i read about all the reports of UFO sightings of the past I can only wonder how many of them are on the level. I only know of one that is.

I was talking with my oldest Brother on the night of December 13th when the subject of "Project Blue Book" came up. We were searching the Web for information when we came across this site and I decided to share a portion of my story. I hope you find it interesting.
