Speechless

by Ashley Weeks Cart

I can hardly breath. Everything hurts. Nothing makes sense.


James emailed me this video knowing that I needed to see my babies’ faces. Knowing that there wasn’t language or thought that could help me or anyone process what happened at the elementary school in Connecticut. I had just heard some of the happiest news of 2012 from a dear friend, and was suddenly blindsided with devastation, fury, and fear when the news from Connecticut hit my inbox.

We are all someone’s child. Hug the someones that you love tightly. Please.

And thank you, Nicky, for this.
