Friday I had hubs pull the kids out of school before heading to daycare. Not because I was afraid for them (ok, mostly not that) but because I did not want them hearing anything about this. I was afraid they would overhear folks talking and I was not ready to destroy their feelings of safety. (they are 5 and 6)
All I wanted to do was hold them. I cannot imagine sending my child off to school and never seeing them alive again.
Heartbreaking is such an insufficient description, but it's the best I can come up with.
I am stick kind of in shock and disgusted and so utterly sad. After I heard about it on Friday morning, I immediately called each of my siblings and asked where my nieces and nephews were. I have six, the oldest is 11 and the youngest is 2. All I wanted to do at that point was run and hold them extra tight.
On a happier note, that is an incredibly adorable looking kiddo!
If you are taking the time to read this drivel, then you must REALLY be into me.
And why wouldn't you be? I'm pretty awesome, I must say.
It's completely understandable.

Short, sweet & direct to the point.
I couldn't watch anymore of the news either. It's beyond heartbreaking.
What an absolutely darling picture. Sending kisses to your mini-me.
I've been looking at pictures of the victims. How could anybody do that?
