Peace

I know that not everyone is aware of the situation. There was a tragic accident this week that involved my sister-in-law and the Burrell family in the Castlegate neighborhood. Unfortunately their two year old son didn't make it. It is going to be difficult for everyone involved. Please keep them in your prayers. I want everyone to know how much we appreciate the outpouring of love and support on behalf of her famly and the Burrell's.
The other night we headed to the Temple.
It looked amazing in the dark and I decided to take some pics of my kids in front of it.
At the time I had no idea how much the time we spent there and how precious the peace I felt would bring me the love and comfort I would need this week.
I felt so peaceful knowing that we were a
forever and eternal family.
When tough times fall on a family and tragedy hits, it's humbling to have the faith that I know my Heavenly Father
loves me and my family so much.
He knows our hearts and loves us unconditionally.
Even when we feel we are unlovable.
I honestly feel that the peacefulness I felt that night, knowing our family is forever, has helped me to get through the trial our family is facing right night.
It's so hard not knowing what's ahead, but I feel peace that the Temple, the blessings of the Temple, the Priesthood, and the
Gospel in my life will help ease that
 pain, hurt, and unknowing.

I love that the Lord puts opportunities in our days, if we let them, that prepare us for the next day. Simple, small, moments that we don't quite realize how big they are until they are gone and we are looking back. Thanks for sharing.
