From the inside looking out...

Dear World,


If you've ever thought that those who work in news are hard hearted and cold, I'd like to prove you wrong. I do agree that working in news has made me a harder, possibly colder person. I am able to shut myself in as death and pain circle around me during each newscast. I have been unable to do so as I work on the story involving Ethan Stacey. For those who may not have heard, Ethan came to Utah in the beginning of May to spend summer with his Mom. He lives in Virginia with his father. His little body was found on May 10, his stepfather is charged with his death and his mom is charged with covering it up.

This story it has had a significant effect on me. I want to work harder to save children from abusive households. I am promising the world right now to love and care for any child I ever have. I promise to hold them tight even when they misbehave. I will love them, I already do love them. I am sure I will only continue to fall in love with any children we might have.
Thank you for this moment.
