I’d planned a very upbeat Christmas post for today. I’ve been very excited about the holidays, decorating and wrapping presents, but then my heart cracked and the post I’d planned late in the night last night stuck in my throat as I watched the news today.

Tears filled my eyes as I thought of the moms, dads, grandparents, and other family members whose lives were shattered today by this selfish person. There are no words to convey how sadden I am for the families in CT.
