No words.

Just came home from a very long day.  A day where I couldn't go refill my water glass without seeing the terror continue to unfold.

As I picked up Madeline from school today, I couldn't help but squeeze her and choke up.  When she asked me why I was sad, I just sat there wondering how do I even begin to explain to my preschooler why 20 kids went to school today and are never coming home.

Instead I just quietly explained that there are lots of kids' families that we need to pray for right now.  She looked at me very seriously and asked "Do they need us to pray for them to get hats and gloves and coats, Mommy? Because we can help them get that stuff." 

You have a big heart, kid.  A big heart.
