All I can do is stare at this screen...not really sure where to move my fingers on these keys. Not sure what, if any, that my words on this post would do to help or on the other extreme hurt if not worded or typed right. Honestly, I have nothing to offer. I've cried. I've wondered how? Why? I've held my littles much tighter. I've wanted to hide us all away from this world...I honestly didn't want to write anything but not writing seemed wrong or ignorant or even worse not honoring what is surrounding us. Sorry it took me a bit to finally do it...
But all I keep thinking is of those precious faces...the little ones and the older ones. The ones with all the future and all the hope of life in their eyes. The ones that had braids and others that had teeth that someday would have braces for years. The ones that had glasses and others beautiful red hair. The ones that had boyish grins and the ones that had giddy laughter in their smiles. The ones that showed bravery on that day to protect little ones. The ones that wanted nothing more than to help raise the next generation. The ones who went to school innocent and young...
It's not just my tears but my heart for the moms and dads and sisters and brothers and grandmothers and aunts and cousins and...all of Newtown, Connecticut. So many hearts are praying, hoping, desperately begging for comfort, peace, love and a little bit of faith will wrap around your heart and your life...with each moment and each breath.
Just thoughts,
