As I was getting my 6 yr old ready for school this morning, my thoughts went to Russia, and the current tragedy that has unfolded there over the last few days. I take my little one to school every morning, fairly secure in the fact that she will be relatively safe at school. I don't worry about masked terrorists breaking in to her school and doing what they did in Russia. My heart breaks for all the parents and children over there right now. I can only imagine the pain and anguish that comes from having to wonder if your baby is safe or alive at all. I held my little love close for a very long time this morning, not wanting to let her go, cherishing every moment she was in my arms, safe and secure. I wonder at all the hardcore liberals with children, how little they must care for their children to be sympathetic with the human scum that commit these acts, to call them "freedom fighters" instead of what they are, to sympathize with their "cause".. the sick thing is, even some who lost loved ones in 911 still sympathize with the people who killed their loved ones. They have no hearts, they are black inside. Because of my beautiful little girl, I support every effort this country makes to annhilate the terrorists and their sympathizers. We will never stamp out evil completely, but we can make it increasingly difficult to commit it or support it. My love and prayers go out to the Russian people right now.
Apparently the USA/Coalition War on Terror is going better than the Pascifist War on Terror

And people are wondering why my eyes are full of tears at work...
btt
The pictures remind of the little girl being carried by the firefighter in OK city. So very sad for these people.
Does Russia need help in these dire circumstances? Hope US offers whatever they may require in medical supplies or other needs.
Apparently we made offers at the beginning, but they haven't responded as of yet.
