Wrenching - had to share this somewhere

I happened upon this article on CNN.com last night.  I was crying while reading it then went straight to my boys' rooms to snuggle them while they slept.

I am going to remember this woman's story when I feel myself losing patience or feeling overwhelmed by life as a working mother. 

THIS woman sacrificed for her children.  I can only hope we never know anything like what she has endured.

Absolutely heartbreaking. I'm also disgusted in myself for wasting so much food. I take a lot for granted.

Just taught my students about the Korean War and the state of Korea today.  Thanks for sharing.  I'm going to have them read this.

I wish this got more coverage - instead we get our panties in a wad about "Tiger Moms" and whether we should give grapes to 1 yos.  Jesus - it really helps to keep things in perspective.

So sad.  My heart hurts after reading this   There is so much we take for granted.

I read this recently and it makes me so incredibly thankful to live in the US.  It also makes some of the frustrating aspects of our government seem like much smaller issues.
