Grief by cdonohoue

Grief

I didn't take this today. I kept playing with bokeh and getting more frustrated. Then I turned the news on and couldn't post any of my insignificant snow men with twinkling lights. I ask that any of you that pray, keep the families of the children and adults that died today in Connecticut in your prayers. I had to call Garrett and just have a little check in with my Kindergartener. There are no words and there will never be any real explanation about how something like this can happen. All that I am left with is prayer.
Yes, Cathy, this is like a tear! For the poor families and friends! It is really tragic!
