A Sad Day
What a sad sad day it is in Lancaster, PA........My mother has visited this community and just loved it. We have an Amish community not far from here that Madison and I love to go to and purchase their foods. They are devastated this morning their hearts are broken. We all need to say a prayer for the mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers and grandparents of these families. We have no idea what they are going through.
Almost 9 years ago.......this November...we had one of the first school shootings in this area. It happened at my husbands old high school. 3 girls were killed while praying in a prayer circle. I will never forget that morning. I was on my way to work and had just passed an ambulance thinking it was a car accident. They came on the radio with breaking news...about a school shooting....I was less than 5 minutes away from this school. My heart broke for the parents and I began to pray.
The shooting rocked our community....we had NBC,CBS,ABC,FOX,and CNN out here. It was a mad house for awhile...we just listened to the radio all day..hoping we didn't know any of the deceased. This morning it brought back alot of sad memories of that day......
I hope as all of you go about your morning, afternoon, and evening you can stop and say a prayer for these families.....it's a sad day for these precious families.
God Bless us all....

My heart and prayers are with the community and the families.
It's hard to imagine how a mind becomes so sick it can do this. My heart breaks for the families of these little girls. We need to pray for them and for the family of the man who did this horrible thing.
We have friends in Lancaster, PA. It is such a quiet and peaceful place. Hard to believe something like this could happen there. I guess nobody is immune, are they?
PS: Not to be shallow during this serious post, but I love what you have done to your blog! It looks fantastic!
P.S. I read your previous post about the Big News- that is so awesome!!!
You must of been scared when the school shooting occured at hubby's old school. Isn't this every parents nightmare? My mom was saying how we send our kids to school thinking it's safe and this is what can happen. It is just one of the worst things I can think of. My heart aches for these people. What a nice post you wrote.
On a lighter note...YOU GOTTA DO THURSDAY 13!!! I love Thursday!! I will keep hounding you til ya do! LOL!
