Friday broke my heart

After hearing of this terrible tragedy I cannot stop crying...  Who could have ever imagined something like this happening.  These poor innocent babies!  I just can't stop wondering how these lil ones must be so scared...  I just still cannot believe this happened...

You are not alone all I could do is sit at my desk at work this morning and cry:( how can anyone hurt children in this way, not only the children lets not forget the heroes that saved a lot of children from this tragedy! My heart goes out to all the families and anyone who knew the families. May God bless them and R.I.P little angels....

All I did Friday night was cry. DH thought something happened at work... But it is a very sad and scary world we live in. Those poor families that lost their babies... and the children that survived are scarred for life. My thoughts and prayers are with all of the families involved.

Same here... I live 30 mins from the school and I was listening to the radio broadcast that is 5 mins away from the school. I also have a friend from Newtown who lives in the Sandy Hook community and she said the town is coming together as a community and are trying to be strong for their friends, neighbors, and classmates.

The teachers are the true heros in this story...if something like that happened, I don't know how I would keep my composure....

This just must have hit us all hard!  I don't have any kids of my own, but all I can think of is having children brought into this scary world.  I have always wanted children, but it makes me wonder, how our world is turning into such a sad place, and do I want to bring my children up in a world like this...  Its just so sad..  I cannot get over this...

You are definitely not alone.  Out of all the the national tragedies, this is the first time I broke down and cried. I don't know why this one gets to me so much.  Maybe because I work with young children?  Either way... at night I can't sleep because I think about what those children's last thoughts where.  Did they call for mommy? Did they try to hide?  Did they cry? 

And, the teachers!  They did not hesitate to protect their children.  Yes, their children.  There is not other way to describe it.  They really are heroes.   

I believe we are grieving as a nation.  It means our country is still compassionate, and we have not become "used" to these horrific attacks.  We should also remember the names of those who lost their lives,  rather than the name of the man who caused this tragedy.  It is a shame that the monsters become house hold names, and the names of the victims often become forgotten.  I refuse to learn the name of the man who did this.

I haven't put the news on all weekend because I just can't watch it. I just keep hugging my kid and being really, really glad he's too little for school.
