I learned today that one of the children from the CT shootings, a little girl, had family here in the Twin Cities. Grandparents.
According to them, they'd talked with her that morning, and she was trying to convince her mom to let her wear a dress to school. A pink little party dress. She wanted to look pretty, they were celebrating the holidays in class. Her mom finally relented and let her wear the dress to school.
She was killed in a pink party dress. Her favorite dress.
As my aunt said, "She looked beautiful for Jesus that day."
