* This is so tough. I saw this little girl’s picture and read a bit about her yesterday. So…I don’t know why it hit me so dang hard this morning. I kinda threw the iPad across the bed just now when I saw her beautiful innocent hinhing face. It hurt my heart cause my chest started hurting and I had to sit down. It took me a minute to slow my breathing down. Omg, how in heaven’s name are these poor families handling this horrific tragedy? It’s so ******* unfair. It’s wrong.This goes against all moral rules of the land.
