I was laying in my bed "pouting" this morning because my own homeschooled children were not cooperating at all today. I had just made threats to them that they were going to public school asap. I left them downstairs to their own plans, and marched myself to my bed. I've been a little under the weather and so I easily drifted off to a light sleep. I was awoken to the tv interrupting with breaking news. I sat straight up in bed and watched as the horrific news unfolded. Instantly I was hearing my harsh words downstairs that I was sending them to school, because I just couldn't deal. My eyes instantly welled up with tears, and my husband called at that moment. I became a sobbing mess of true hurt and pain for these families. I just cannot imagine...I'm speechless as to what to say. I know that these parents would give anything for their kids to be back in their arms. I am so deeply saddened at the senseless tragic loss of precious babies, that I'm just sick. BP walked in my room, saw me crying and caught a glimpse of the tv. All I could do was hug him and cry. I continued to thank Jesus for my babies and the fact that I can still wrap my arms around them and tell them I love them. I will definitely have a different outlook on our schooldays and just any time that I have with them. This world is a sinful tragic place, and all we can do is pray that Jesus keeps us safe until His glorious return.
Praying for the families of this tragedy, that God would comfort them beyond all understanding. Praying for the babies that they would be at peace and rest with our Saviour.
