Since this blog is very much a family journal, I was going to write a fun post about all our holiday preparations - the tree, the treats, the games. But I'm too sad. Every time I get on the computer to do something innocuous like check my email or google ideas for my Primary Sharing Time I see more horrific details about those poor children in Connecticut. Every single one of them were in 1st grade. They were Tessa's age. And then I get teary and sad and have to turn the computer off again.
I don't know how you ever get over something like that. I really don't. I don't know how you even start.
Today Jay took the kids to a movie and I wrapped presents and watched a stupid movie on TV to pass the time and I just kept thinking about those families. It seemed like a long few hours until my family was home again and the house was noisy and happy and I was so grateful that all my kids walked in the door and started fighting about whose turn it was to play on the computer.
There really are no words.

My heart feels the same. I feel so much ache inside over this. It's hard to NOT dwell on it...especially when I have a young one the same age.
