So Blessed

Tonight while I was at work I logged onto the facebook and blog of a friend from BYU with whom I lived in Maeser together. Her husband of less than a year went missing on May 23rd. Finally, police found his body yesterday, on Memorial day. She is pregnant and due in October. I feel so sad for her loss and so mad at myself for being upset with Heavenly Father with the situation that my family and I are in. After reading her story I was truly humbled and put in my place, per say, because Emily has lost her husband, and despite the knowledge that we have from the temple, she is alone and pregnant. My troubles are nothing and I feel like such a jerk for the complaining I was doing last night. If anyone reads this, please pray for Emily!

His sister is in my parents ward. My mom has been helping their family out (RS president's job) and I know her well. She was really close to Carrie. It is so sad. He seems like a great guy.
