The first thing I saw when I opened my laptop this morning was news about the Colorado massacre. Seconds later the realization set in that the movie theater was 5 miles away from the temporary apartment we just left behind in Denver. I’m horrified, terrified, and extremely saddened by this news. I wish for a shield big enough to protect my kids from anything like this coming near them in their lifetime, yet I know there’s not one large enough to handle this task. My heart goes out to the town I moved away from a mere two weeks ago. I pray for the families of the victims, and hope that justice is swift. May we never have something like this happen again…
