This morning, for once in a million days, I'm stuck at home with a fever. Nothing severe, but it was strong enough to crash me yesterday. I decided to stay home from school so I could recuperate. As I was semi-sleeping on the couch (meowing kittens outside were keeping me up - more on those cuties later), I got a text from my good friend who moved out to LA recently.

"Did u hear the news bout steven curtis chapmans daughter?"

That's what my friend asked me. Naturally I replied no and waited for an answer, but nothing came. So just now, as I log onto my dad's laptop - the only working computer in our house thanks to me - and I go into Mozilla Firefox (don't you IE fans get up in my face about that), I see what my friend had been talking about. Our homepage is set to the Fox News website. And in the major headlines, it said this:

"Steven Curtis Chapman's daughter, 5, killed after being struck by SUV driven by her teen brother at family's Tennessee home."

And I cried. Now, granted, it's not easy for me to break into tears, but it's one heart wrenching story. And not only that, but I can't even imagine the guilt that this boy is feeling.

So my question of the day to you is what do you think you would do in this situation? How would you feel? Would you ever be able to forgive yourself for doing something like this? Or if you were a parent, could you ever forgive your child for doing this?

If you'd like to hear more about this, you can either read the story here or listen to a radio interview with Steven Curtis Chapman here.

Note: Radio interview, as far as I've listened, is just an interview with Steven Curtis Chapman, and was done before the accident.
