'You can't breathe': Sugar Land mom grieves loss of kids, mother in fire during freeze
After playing cards and spending time together by the fireplace, the tired family members headed to sleep, brushing their teeth and settling into bed as the Houston region descended into one of its coldest nights.

Edison, 8, went to the room of his 11-year-old sister, Olivia, which had bunk beds. The children’s grandmother, Loan Le, planned to sleep with the youngest, 5-year-old Colette.
