thank you ...

... for all of your kind words. Your comments sent a much needed wave of warmth in my direction. I just wish that I could extend each of you a hug, or at the very least, respond to each of you individually. (Blogger is stinky for not giving me your email addresses when you leave comments.)

Just know that kindness goes a long way. I went back to school today, refreshed and motivated to be the best person I can be for the sake of my children.

My heart continues to go out to the families involved in the tragedy. May we all continue do everything in our capacity to bring peace to our little corners of the world and beyond.

xo,
Meg

Meg, Today I got some bad news. One of my friends from home lost his mom. She and a friend went missing and they finally discovered their remains this week. I just heard today. I am so sad. It was ironic that just yesterday I read about your friend. But just having heard your story made me realize that that is why we have friends... to share the good and the bad, and not be alone with our sorrows. There's a 7 year old girl who is badly missing her grandma right now. I hope someone fills that space with love.

Meg, let me add my sincere condolences. It's so hard to know what to say to a "stranger' and not sound trite, but I'm so sorry to hear about this. My thoughts go out to you and her family.

Dear Meg,

I am so sorry to learn of the loss of your friend Marijke. Reading your blog has given me many moments of peace. Please know you are spreading love throughout your corner of the world. The children you teach are so blessed to have a loving, caring teacher. Please know that this "stranger" is sending prayers for healing your way...
