I have tried to write this post several times over the weekend but could not find any words to express how I felt. Numbness seemed to be prevalent, but as I was leaving for school today the news started to scroll the pictures of those precious babies. I left for my classroom with tears streaming down my face. How do I answer my precious first graders' questions, Father? How do I keep my composure? How do I calm their fears? BELIEVE! I believe that I did not have the answers but God provided. I believe that I was called to be their teacher. I believe that 19 children needed to see me as much as I needed to see them. I believe that my 19 babies left school today feeling loved and safe. Being a family is ALL that mattered today!
