School


As a mom who has lost her children to a murder the murder of the elementary students hits me different, then the average person, well I think it does.


I do not just imagine the pain that the mom is going through I feel it, no I do not know what they are feeling but I feel the pain of the lose of my children all over again.   I remember the feeling of nothing, the empty and lonely feeling that is explainable to a person who has not felt it.  I feel the hurt that is so deep that you do not even know if there is a way to get out of the feeling.
It is true you should never have to bury a child. 


I know that these families are going to need love and support in the days to come, I am proud that people seem to be able to get the help that is needed.


TeachersAs a mom of five boys and two angels who did not experience school until her oldest of the five boys was able to start school, this experience has really made me realize what it took for me to be able to send my kids to school.  My biggest reason for not wanting to send my kids to school was a trust issue. 


I am sure glad that teachers are there for our children.  Teachers are the ones who give children the love and caring that they need when we not there and they are learning. This Friday it shows how much our schools teachers love our students and how most of them would risk their lives for the life of a student.  So THANK YOU to all those wonderful teachers, and please take the time to thank your teachers for being who they are.
