A country in mourning

Today we awake to realize that the nightmare in Connecticut yesterday was reality and not the ghoulish dream we'd hoped. It sinks in that twenty children between the age of five and ten are being claimed by parents who won't see them open their gifts on Christmas morning. Let us also keep in mind the victims' families of not only this, but the mall shooting that claimed two lives.

I'm not going to politicize gun control using this platform. I have my opinions about the situation and current circumstances but the issue is that a very deranged man took the lives of innocent babies. May we all hug our children a little tighter today as our thoughts are with the mothers and fathers who don't have the chance to hear I love you again.
