Bitter Sweet

Yesterday was one of those bitter sweet days. 

The day started off with the sweet, my amazing sister in law, Bre, gave birth to two BEAUTIFUL boys.

Jacob and Anderson were welcomed into the world and are big and healthy. 

Such a blessing when having twins.

Meet: Anderson...

and Jacob...

 I can't wait to snuggle them tonight!!!

Then everything bad started happening. 

-Bombing at the Boston Marathon

-A cousin of one of my sister-in-laws passed away during a routine surgery

-And a young girl went missing in Provo on her way to school.

My heart hurts.

My thoughts and prayers have been consumed with all of the above.
I pray for all those that were in Boston yesterday and their families.
I pray for my sister in law and her family, that they will be comforted in this time of trial.

I pray that this little girl in Provo will be found safely. This is a parents worst nightmare.
UPDATE: she has been found!

I'm so grateful for my knowledge of the gospel. I know we have a loving Heavenly Father who is always there with open arms to comfort us. I've felt his comforting power in my own life and I know he will comfort all those who are going through trials.
