Merry Christmas

Today, on Christmas, I sit here with my family, our three beautiful children and expecting another.  I am overjoyed to be able to spend these precious times with them.  However, this Christmas, I have a heavy heart.  My thoughts are with the families effected by the tragedy in Newtown, Connecticut.  Even though I haven't written about it on this blog, I have been so devastated over this incident.  Maybe it's because I have young children.  Maybe it's because it is so close to Christmas.  Maybe it's because I'm pregnant.  I don't know.  PLEASE take a minute to say a prayer for these families.  I'm sure today is going to be especially hard for them.

 

In my thoughts and heart...
