Sandy Hook Shooting

My prayers and blessings to the families and friends that lost a loved one in the Sandy Hook shooting this past friday, I can not even fathom the grief that you must have. Today, I was informed that 8 of the 12 girls killed were Daisy Girl Scouts and two of the boys killed had a sister that is a Girl Scout. This hits home with me because being a scout myself I can not imagine little kids having to endure the sadness that they are going through. I do not know what the drive of this act was, and I do not know if he knew what the outcome of his actions would cause because in reality -- he hurt the whole nation. I am stunned just as much as anyone else is by this event but all we can do now is help and support those that have been effected and grieve as a nation. All I know is that the 20 little kids and 8 adults that lost their lives are in heaven looking down on all of us; especially their families. Have a happy and safe holiday season and keep the victims of Sandy Hook in your prayers.
