As a mother, my heart aches for this child... for this family. Prayers going up for all involved.

"The fatality was a mother who was driving her child." Driving her child where? Doesn't seem like it would be to school or the like at 5:30 AM.

Why does it matter where they were going. Maybe the mom's work day starts early and she was taking the child to childcare. Maybe they were going out of town and got an early start. What should be the focus here is that a woman died and her child was taken to the hospital. A families worst tragedy. Praying for comfort and peace for the family and more understanding and caring from the rest of us.

I've personally known treva and her family for awhile. How dare you even try to make the assumption about where she was going with taela at that time. Treva had the biggest heart of anyone i know. she was told she couldn't have anymore kids 18years before taela was born and she cherished every second with that baby girl. Taela was her miracle child. And now taela will never have the honor of growing up and seeing just how amazing her mama really was. Their family doesn't need criticism. They need prayers and strength to be able to endure the future heartache. Love you so much treva, taela, Tessa & thana

Actually, YES she was on her way to drop off the baby to go to work. Many of us moms have had to be at work at this hour & taken our children to daycare & sitters. let me guess- you're a stay at home mom? well, not all of us have that luxury. Pray for this baby who is still fighting the injuries suffered in this wreck, pray for her Daddy who will now be raising her and pray for her family who are dealing with a tragic loss, but please,keep your close minded assumptions to yourself.
