I am a Turkish woman married to an American man and we live in the Netherlands. Even though the shooting happened far away, but it struck me right in the heart. I still cry when I read bout all the lives of these little angels. As parents you give your kids life and watch them grow, then they start giving you life everyday. You see that they are getting independent with the day and that you have to let them go with courage. you expect the world around you to help them blossom. But death at their age is not the kind of "letting go" that a parent should face! 
Parents, I will never totally understand your pain, but I want to say that I half way across the globe stand with you in spirit and heart!
