I normally can keep my emotions in check when I need to. But this week, as I have noticed each year at this time, I tend to get VERY emotional over stupid senseless things. This has been no exception. I think Monday was just a day I should have stayed in the bed. Monday was the anniversary of my grandmother's death and that is what I knew. She had been gone for 18 yrs now. I miss her, especially when my life gets complicated and I knew she could be there to give me the greatest advice I could ever have. But then as the day progressed, I had my niece over here, and she gets to me, especially when she starts being nosy. She has been known to snoop in my car (Seen her do it and stopped her) and she was about 12 I think at the time. She learned from her mother. Doesn't surprise me. Anyway, To top that off, after she left I still had company. Glad to know that I had a friend here to keep me and my husband out of each other's hair. lol
Tuesday was something that I just couldn't deal with. Here is an explanation, which I have to admit really breaks my heart even as I write this. Child Abuse is something that we shouldn't ignore. I agree. But what gets me, and I am sorry if this offends anyone, is the parents who can beat a child (or kick them) to death. THERE IS NO REASON to beat a child. There are couples who want to have kids in the world that Can't have them for some reason or another then you get those who have kids right and left that beat their kids to death. I think it just broke my heart after viewing the video about the little angel. She didn't deserve to die like that, much less die. She was a beautiful little girl, and my heart goes out to her family and her father who came home from war only to bury his little girl. Sorry, but I had to deal with being emotional after viewing the video and I am still not completely over that yet.
