Our kids deserve better.

Mom of two munchkins and a crochet enthusiast. Mexican-American. Navigating through the tech world. Learning new things every day. Taking it one day at a time.

Today was a hard day the news reached everyone in a matter of seconds. Coding did not cross my mind today at all. Not even as I was staring at my computer during lunch ready for class. All I was thinking about were my kids and how my oldest is in school at this moment. I gave a silent prayer for her and her school.

What are we doing to the world? Is this what we want our kids to inherit from us? A world full of violence and death and turnmoil and sadness. I cried for those kids who were taken violently today. For the parents who lost their babies. For the community who will now need to live with it forever.

I am hoping no one else will ever have to live through this. What will take for us to stand up and demand that change? What are we waiting for? How many more innocent lives will we sacrifice?

Hugged my kids tight tonight.
