Hug your kids extra tight tonight, extra, extra tight, and love them up, and count your blessings. Because today, I'm hugging my Trout and holding her while she cries and talks about William McQuain, her band classmate, whose body was found this morning. How do you talk to your child about the murder of her 11-year-old classmate and his mother, allegedly at the hands of his step father? HOW? No one should ever have to have this conversation, because THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN.
Ever.
I hope his step father rots in Hell.
I wish I could come take her for ice cream or something. :-(

Just heartbreaking. I can't even imagine trying to explain such a thing to any of my kids.
