I was doing my daily checking in of my blog dashboard. I've done day after day for a while now. I usually read things that inspire me, encourage me, lift me up.
But today.....................
..................... I read this this and this.
Today, as I opened each post up and looked as Madison, just up from a nap, sat on my lap, I had to send her away. I asked her to go up and check on her baby sister, because I know she loves to do that. I just had to send her away, because I don't know how to explain to her why Mommy is crying. Crying over a family who I have never met, but my heart breaks that they have lost their little girl. Crying, knowing that it could be us.
It doesn't matter to me that I haven't met these people, because we are connected. We are connected in a way that other people are not. So my heart is broken for them, and I cry for them. And I'll hold my babies a little tighter tonight, and be thankful for every day.
