Really sad. I can only handle so much media and honestly there were some other occurrences over the weekend, law enforcement officers killed, shooting at a hospital etc. that just put me over the edge. I shed a lot of tears but I've had to kind of step away. I have a lot of empathy but I have to step back and not let myself get too sucked in to the nastiness of the world. There's a lot of good too, it doesn't get the 24/7 coverage. I also don't want to be so sad/mad/depressed that I can't be present for the things in front of me.

As far as lingering fear...my kids are much more likely to die in a car accident on the way to school so...I'm not really afraid, just saddened for the families of the babies.
That's me too.
