I haven’t written anything in awhile, and truly miss writing.  I was working on a post about holiday traditions.  But in light of the tragic events in Connecticut, my heart is heavy.

In October, I lost my father suddenly and that grief is hard to bare on some days.  There are no words that can possibly convey comfort to a parent who has lost a child to such senseless violence. There are no words to comfort a child who has witnessed such horror.  All I can do is offer my prayers to every family affected, and pray for this hurting nation of ours.
