Grieving

As I sit in bed and listen to my sweet baby's breathing as she sleeps I long to sweep her into my arms and hold her and never let go.  I feel overwhelmed with sadness and find myself fighting back irrational fears of what might happen to my family.  Over the weekend missionary friends of ours lost their nearly two year old son as he died suddenly in his sleep.  I feel numb and broken, unable to even begin to think of all the emotions that our friends must be facing right now.  They had just come back to the States after a three year term in a very challenging country, weary and heavy laden, needing rest. Now this.  Please join me in praying for their family.
