Innocence

So me not thinking is listening to NPR on the drive home with my boy. We pull into the neighborhood and NPR is talking about the massacre at Ft. Hood. “13 Live Lost.”

“Mommy, how do you lose you life? Did they die, Mommy? Mommy that’s not good.”

Oh sweet innocent E – how I wish I could shelter you from all evil and maintain your sweetness forever and ever.
