351

A friend suffered a terrible, terrible tragedy this morning.  My heart breaks and I know I can't even comprehend what she and her family are going through.  If I could I would hug and hold her and each of her kids and her hubby, too, until their hurt went away, even if it took until they were all together again.  I want to hold each of my own children and my husband, squeeze them, love them, and never let them go.  No matter how much marker they get on their little hands and faces.  No matter how many toys I step on.  No matter how often he's late for dinner.  I hope they know how much I love them.  

I'm grateful my family let me squeeze them a little tighter and a little longer today.

You're not supposed to make me cry.
