After reading your very vivid memories of what you, Jeremy, your adorable daughter and son, and all your family went through last year…. I’m reminded of just why I named the little angel standing on my fireplace mantel “Mindy”. AND, why my Mom could not remember anyone’s name but “MINDY”!!! Thank you for writing this memory of tough times survived and for being the wonderful person and inspiration you are. I love seeing the Facebook posts showing your family having such good times together. Lots of love and wishes for many years of continuing happy times for you all.

Thank you Sharon! I wholeheartedly appreciate you taking the time to read my ramblings. And I’ve heard you speak to your classroom kiddos with more eloquence and deep-hearted passion than I could ever hope to muster up. <3

I completely understand that feeling Marie. I actually also went to Thurston and knew the Kinkel family. Although I wasn’t attending the school at the time, I still feel a very personal involvement to the situation and to the community. My hope is that the current generation, growing up among and amidst this culture, will bring the change we so desperately need. Thank you for your comment. <3

Many believe that this is just the cost of living in a free society…we sacrifice our kids to the “gun gods” and hope that what ever the number of the new tragedy is enough to satisfy him for awhile. But it’s not…my kids all graduated from Thurston High school in Oregon, one of the first and most media immersed school shootings of it’s time. Only 2 students were killed (the shooter killed his parents as well before he opened fire at the school) My kids were not students there at the time, but the legacy of being at the front of this epidemic still lives in our community. I can’t even talk to anyone about this any more because I believe that if nothing was done after Sandy Hook, nothing will really ever be done. I just can’t even open my mouth about it without crying and becoming ineffective at trying to support my opinions on the obvious need for change.

You took all of my feelings and turned them into something that made sense, but far more eloquently than I ever could have done. I’m guilty of many of the things you wrote about. I appreciate the frankness.
