All Unwritten Prompt 1366- On the Ground

[thewindforest]

 Disclaimer: 
So I tried to avoid the Casey Anthony trial as long as I could. I honestly didn't want to know. What I had gathered from the rampant media coverage was enough: three years ago a young mother, almost beyond even a shadow of doubt, murdered her own 2 year old child. I teach. Two of my best friends have beautiful, amazing small children.

Oh my god... this is horrific and beautiful. It almost hurts to read.

Thank you for your feedback. It was painful to write, too; Siobhan has definitely gone through more than any other character I have written! I wanted the reader to understand what happened to her and to empathize, since she is going to have a dark path for some time to come as I work through my own thoughts on this subject matter. Thanks again for reading!

Wow. Beautifully written, but yet, painful to read.

I just can't imagine how a mother would do that to her innocent, beautiful child. I certainly can't imagine doing anything half that bad to mine. *shudder*
