It's not a question, or anything but I just came upon it on the Daily Mail website, and I thought it was amazing.
Definitely a must-read, and I really wanted to share it with you all.

It's about a family, the mother was brutally murdered in 1992 on a day at work, and left a husband/father with two daughters to bring up.

It's such a lovely, but sad read.

Here are the links 🙂

The Day My Wife Was Murdered by a Random Stranger and My Perfect World was Destroyed

'Mummy's dead,' I told the girls. 'But Daddy,' Lucy wailed. 'You can't cook': Murder victim's husband Jeremy Howe tells of moment he told his young daughters.

Snow White came back from the dead - why can't Mummy? After his wife's murder, Jeremy now faces the challenge of being mum as well as dad.

Part of my heart belongs to Lizzie, but I'm no longer a prisoner of the past: How finding new love helped Jeremy heal the emotional scars left by his wife's murder.

I'm not linking these to be horrible, or to publicise on this family's pain, but I think the story is so emotional, and definitely connects to all the current threads regarding children.
 
Out of principle I don't read the Mail so I won't be clicking on the links, but it sounds like an awful ordeal to go through. Bit heavy for a site like this though I'd have thought.

I agree with your view on the Daily mail.
I read them. I cant even imagine going through something like that. The way he goes back to how his wife was dying as he was buying a new kitten. I felt so horrible for him, but his decision to try and raise his girls and give them a normal life was so admirable. Thanks for posting this, it gives you renewed gratitude for the time you have with your spouse.

I'm gonna go hug my husband right now.
