Sitting in my borrowed gray fuzzy robe with a glass of milk & a bag of daim... still have some clay on my shoes & hair... evaluating my day. After a lovely day Espen & I played outside for a very long time. It was not very warm but he had so much fun out there... So since my goal was to do 17 minutes (or 1 mile) a day, I used the opportunity to do some "stepping" on the deck stairs. Fresh air, exercise & the cutest little boy helping me!
While I was driving home today Kellie got a text from a friend about a shooting in an Omaha public school. So she made a call for info & we found details on the radio. When I was home, I saw some of the coverage & it was a school I am familar with & 2 were injured & the shooter dead. It troubles me. Of course there are lots of things that may have happened in the young man's life & family & school. But it made me pause and kiss my son. He is to little to know any of what is really happening in the world. But I know. And I want to protect him for as long as I can. I want him to be safe for as long as I can keep him that way. And when he goes off into the world I will worry about senseless and random acts. But today he was my sweet innocent baby boy and I loved him....
