And I want to be able to have one thing left that is sacred to our family, to my in-laws, to my babies and to my parents.

One thing.

What are they taking from you right now?

Nothing.

But I will tell you what they are doing.

It reminds me so much of chapter 6 in the book of Nehemiah.

He is building a wall, and the townspeople are at the base of that hill saying, Nehemiah, calling him all these names, saying all these things, come on down.

Every single time he had the same message four times in a row.

I cannot come down.

I am busy building.

That is how I feel.

I do not have time to address the noise.

My silence does not mean that I am complacent.

My silence does not mean that somehow Turning Point USA and all of the handpicked staff that loved my husband and my husband loved them is somehow in on it.

We are busy building.

And you know what I thought?

I thought these people are human.

We are all grieving in our own way.

And they are trying to find the answer to something that happened that was so evil.

They are trying so hard.
