And 17 More In Florida

I hardly know where to begin on this, the morning after the Florida school shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland. Seventeen bodies and souls now gone from this earth, murdered in what should be the safest place for them to be at any given time.

I guess I’ll begin with my relief at the fact that by chance, my children do not have school today. By chance, at our school hundreds of miles away in Ohio, there was a teacher in-service scheduled for today and tomorrow. President’s Day is Monday, and so, for me, there is a reprieve. I have three whole weekdays and a weekend before I have to worry about my kids being murdered at school.
