How did this happen?

I went to college in Boston.

I met my husband in Boston.

We had our first date in Boston.

We lived in the burbs of Boston for the first 4+ years of our marriage.

Lorien and Wyatt were born in Boston.

We went to watch the Marathon every Patriot's day.

My heart aches every time I flip on the news and see the coverage of the coward's actions on Monday.  I cannot imagine what would cause a person to harm innocent people in the hopes of getting their message across?

I cannot believe a little boy died in this mess.

I've kissed my kids a million extra times and prayed my heart out for Boston.  This kind of thing makes no sense to me.  I am going to go and kiss my kids again.
