Overnight, there was a (ANOTHER) mass shooting in Las Vegas. Over the years, mass shootings or bombing have just become a 'thing' that happens anymore. I'm so tired of it. So tired of waking up to bad news in the world - innocent people being killed. Just stop! Just stop hurting one another. It's just awful.
Not only do we have to worry about how this affects us as adults - but how does this affect our children?? I almost hate to have the news on anymore because my kids (especially Kayson), will see all this bad stuff and asks questions. He has every right to ask questions; and God can only hope that Ryan and I can answer the questions and guide him (and Cora) to not ever do or be a part of terrible acts like this.
Sad or bad news just comes too often anymore. I like to think that our little family is happy; and we are... but not everyone is. You don't know what's going on in everyone's homes... and I feel for those people/those families. I guess right now - I just want people to be nice. Stop hurting people - it doesn't have to be with guns - with words and especially actions. Just be nice. Be respectful. (as I tell my kids almost daily --- be respectful!!!)
I understand we can't shield our kids from everything... I get it. But this is just outrageous... and almost unbelievable, like a terrible nightmare. But the nightmare continues. I'm sad. I'm scared. I'm overwhelmed.
...end of rant.
