All seven beautiful children posing here with their father were fatally shot by him in Louisiana on Sunday morning.
The picture was taken Easter Sunday — just two weeks before deranged Army vet Shamar Elkins, 31, gunned down his kids during a “domestic dispute” that spiraled out of control.
The bloodbath cost the young lives of Jayla Elkins, 3, Layla Pugh, 7, Khedarrion Snow, 6, Kayla Pugh 6, Shayla Elkins, 5, Sariahh Snow, 11 and Braylon Snow, 5.

In addition to wiping out seven children he had with his wife and a girlfriend, Elkins fatally shot 10-year-old Mar’Kaydon Pugh, the son of his wife’s sister.
“My boy may God rest your soul son. Daddy gonna miss u so much,” Mar’Kaydon’s grieving father, Troy Brown, wrote in a heartbreaking tribute to his son on Facebook.
“I love u Mar’Kaydon nothing will ever change that. Watch over us from on high,” the dad in the post, which included several touching photos of his boy.

“Give your grannies (Jeanette & Topeka) a hug for us. This hurts so bad, pls pray for me and Keosha Pugh on the lost of our only son and our nieces and nephews. God pls give us strength.”
Elkins also turned an “assault-style pistol” on his estranged wife, Shaneiqua Pugh, the mother of Layla, Jayla, Kayla and Shalya, shooting her several times in the face and abdomen at her West 79th Street home in Shreveport, leaving her in critical condition, cops said.
Also at home was Shaneiqua’s sister, Keosha, whose son was Mar’kaydon.
A few blocks away on Harrison Street was a home occupied by his girlfriend, Christina Snow — mother of Khedarrion, Sariahh and Braylon.
Christina was shot in the face, too. She was critically wounded as well.
After the shootings, cops chased Elkins in a carjacked red Kia Sportage until he died by gunfire — though it was not immediately clear whether he took his own life or if he was shot by police.
