An A-ha moment!

I just read a beautifully written article.  You can check it out here:

It's such a different perspective than most of the articles I've read.  My heart still aches right now for the families, the community & really the whole world. & I'm not even closely connected to the tragedy, other than being a mother.  But I just realized from reading an article a friend linked to Facebook, that this is the reason I feel so strongly about this whole thing.
  I live & breathe motherhood all day long.
  I watch the news & cry. 
I watch my kids playing (or fighting) & I cry.  I think what if this is their last time together.  What if I don't get another chance to squeeze my babies & tell them how much I love them.  For almost a week now I've cuddled, hugged & talked more to my babies than I have in a month.  I wish it didn't take something like this to slow me down.  But I'm thankful to have the chance to try again at active mothering.
Please, read the article for yourself, you'll surely be moved by it.
