I had a really

I had a really bad day.

This afternoon the kids and i were going to the school to unlock the gates for some landscape stuff to be dropped off. We turned off of our road onto lovers lane (no lie). I saw something dart under the car on the passenger side and as i looked in the rearview mirror i saw that it was a cat running away and i could tell that it was hurt. I turned the car around and pulled into the nearest driveway. A man was working in the garage and i asked him if he had a grey cat. He knew right away. We went to look for the cat while the kids sat in the car. I found the cat right at the side of the road. I called the man and he ran over and scooped her up.

She was dead.

He started to cry a little and i apologized, a lot. I didn't know what to do. So, i left.

The kids were really upset and so was i.

I have had so many pets die by getting hit by cars. It's really awful. When shane and i were on our honeymoon our cat, spalding, got hit by a car. It really sucked.

I feel so bad for those people. I am so sorry for what i did. I couldn't help it.

The kids want to make them a card. Would that be inappropriate?
