We have been reminded a lot this weekend about how fragile life is. We often get caught up in our day to day lives and forget how fortunate we are each day to be with our loved ones. Our sweet 2 year old nephew Nash has been diagnosed with retinoblastoma. Basically it is a cancerous tumor in the eye. We keep praying for him and his family. He is scheduled for a surgery this coming Friday.

We also found out that our Bishop's daughter lost her 4 year old daughter yesterday to Carbon Monoxide poisoning in their home. Our hearts are broken for them as they deal with this loss. They are also in our prayers. More than anything this loss has caused me to realize how life can change in a matter of moments and I have been holding my kids a little tighter and a little longer these last couple days. What a gift it is to have the knowlege of the plan of salvation and know that we will be with our loved ones again. It doesn't make the pain of losing a dear one go away, but it at least lightens the burden a little. So remember to say I love you to those you love and be thankful for each day we get to live here on this earth together.
