My heart is broken. I sat up to watch the news tonight, really just to check the weather, so I would know how to dress the kids for tomorrow. (Translation: which dirty clothes to pull out of the laundry room.) Instead, a different story got my attention, and I don't care about the weather anymore. It seems a 22 month-old baby was found dead in our area today. The news lady said that the cause of death was unknown, but that there were scars on the child's hands and feet as a result of his mother admitedly scalding him for "excessive" crying. Oh, I don't even know where to begin. My heart is just broken.
