Parents aren't supposed to bury their children. It's not the natural order of things. Those of us who have buried our children, know the permanent heartache that Xander's parents' s will now suffer.

That said, where were the parents and what were they doing that no one noticed the children in distress in the pool?

Some people are natural-born sheepdogs instead of sheep.

His loss is a real shame.

What a man, at such a young age. I can't help but wonder what a man he would have become. However, the Lord works in mysterious ways and called him home. I have no doubt he is wrapped safely in the arms of our Lord. My heart is breaking for his parents and their loss.
