Thankful Day 27

Today I am thankful for eternal families. In my church we believe that when we are married and sealed in the LDS Temple, we are sealed together as a family for all eternity. I am so grateful that Hutch and I were sealed in the temple and that Perrin and I and Hutch will be together forever. Today I went to a funeral of my friends baby. He was 4 days old when he passed away. For his story you can go to www.ianjamesmurphy.com (you'll need tissues). Knowing that they are an eternal family has really helped Annelise and Mickey get through this. Annelise has always been a really strong and confident women but watching her go through this has shown what an incredible and faithful women she is. I also thankful that I am able to watch women like Annelise and the example she is for her daughters and everyone else around her.

I am so grateful for eternal families too. I can't imagine anything harder than having your child die. Your friend's story is amazing. I've been crying for half an hour reading her story and looking at sweet pictures. What an example of courage and strength. Thanks for sharing and reminding me not to take life for granted.
