I'm literally in tears right now as I type this and felt that this needed to be shared. I am at such a loss of words for the tragedy that took place today to those sweet children and teachers in Newtown, Connecticut. What makes a person walk into an elementary school and open fire on little babies is way beyond my comprehension...I pray so much for those families who lost someone today and am so deeply saddened that we live in the world we live in. When did things take such a horrible turn? When did elementary schools go from a safe haven to a place of fear? Why is it this keeps happening?? Never in my life, until today, did I worry so much about bringing a child into this world -- things really need to change // and fast.
Please keep these children and their families in your thoughts and prayers tonight as I can't even imagine how one begins to cope with everything that has just happened, my heart aches for them in so many ways. Go home and hug your babies a little tighter tonight and give them all the kisses in the world.

that picture at the bottom is beautiful.
Praying, thinking, hoping for all the families and friends involved in this tragic event!
Your picture says it all, indeed such a sad and senseless day. I have a heavy heart, and yes I agree it is so beyond comprehension.
Makes your stop and recognize how fragile life can be...
(((hugs)))))))
I feel just what you do. I still cannot believe in all that happened and also get tears in my eyes thinking about it. It is all so sad and scary. I couldn't stop thinking about what the little kids went through (things no one is prepared to deal with), and how scary and painful was for the parents to not know what was going on and if their kids were alive. And in how much pain are those that dropped of their kids for a normal day at school and won't be able to hug them again. My thoughts and prayers are with them.
What a great post. What happened today is terrible. It has been the buzz around the office as we have a number of employees that live in that area (one of our companies is based out of Danbury, CT). I'm disgusted by what happened. How does a person do that?? I can't even wrap my mind around it.
This is one of the most horrifying events that I can imagine, and when I found out about it today I felt so disgusted and heartbroken. I don't understand how on earth anyone could be so cruel. Those poor children and their families... so heartbreaking. Prayers, prayers :(
this is a horrible thing that happened very sad and true Kelly we have to hold our children and loved ones more closer
I was in tears reading the reports and then watching President Obama's statement on the events. Such a senseless tragedy.
Feel like leaving work right now to hugs my kids

I come from Slovenia and in our country is not a habit that people would carry guns, and it's not so easy to get them, as in America. I do not understand why in America you can buy a gun so easily. Until the legislation is changed, it will continue to happen. I'm crying too. My thoughts and prayers are with the people effected by the shootings <3
Such a tragedy. May god heal the broken hearts of those involved.
My thoughts exactly...things need to change.
My heart aches for those sweet children and their families. I couldn't wait to get home to hug my boy tight.
I'll never understand it.
what a beautiful post! <3
I completely share your thoughts. This evil is incomprehensible to me and I cannot imagine how the parents of those lost children are dealing with it.
When i heard that on the news, I though it was a joke! How can some one harm innocent children!!!
COME VISIT&GET COMFORTABLE
COME WATCH ME
Unbelievable what happened! What is going on with the world today! My heart goes out to the families.
It is terribly sad. I feel so bad for the families who lost their children. The government seriously needs to make changes so this doesn't happen again.
You took the words right out of my mouth. Thank you for this sweet dedication to the Newtown victims and their families. You have a big heart, Kelly!
I'm so so sad too. All those beautiful children and teachers. Gone for no reason. It's so scary raising children these days :(
I'm with you on this. I haven't been able to stop the tears yet. Beautifully written Kelly!
I feel the same as you. I finally had to tell my sons what happened on friday because I knew they would hear about it at school. Instead they heard about it at church but I'm glad I had talked to them about it first. Praying for those families and grieving with them.
Thank you for this post Kelly. As a CT resident/girlfriend of a CT educator, this means a lot <3
Well its not the world we live in but the country u live in.. Some of us have never had school shootings, because we dont just give veapons to everyone.. The more ppl u give veapons, tge bigger chance that something like this happens..
