Prayer Request
I had a bit of a sad week as I learned that a friend of mine from back home lost her little girl Tori unexpectedly Monday. The kids and I went to my parents' house immediately, in hopes of bringing some support to her at such a tough time. I remember feeling the strength of the many prayers three years ago when Luke died, and as I talked to her she said she felt it as well. You can never have too many people praying for you, however! Please pray for Amy and her family. She wrote a beautiful tribute to Tori on her blog- you can read it if you click on "Amy and Sean" in my friends list. She's an amazing woman- strong, faithful, and an excellent mother. My heart aches for her and her loss. Please pray for her.

Okay, such a small world. My brother lives in Clinton and is in your friend's ward. My mom is back there visiting and she played for a trio for the funeral. What a beautiful tribute.
Thanks for letting us know. Our prayers are with you and this family in a time of loss.
I am so sorry. I will keep Amy and Sean's family in my prayers. You are a good friend. I am glad that you were able to feel comfort from prayer when you lost Luke. I am so grateful for the power of prayer.
We will definately remember them in our prayers. Thanks for including us in the prayer request.
Thank you so much Cari, for everything! You truly are amazing and I am grateful for you. Words can't tell how much I appreciated you coming and sharing with me your experiences and the things you learned. The prayers have been felt and are still needed as we get through this one day at a time. You are a wonderful friend! Don't be surprised if you hear from me soon. I still have questions on how you did it and are still doing it...Thanks for the love (and the love bucket :)).
Every single time I think of you coming all the way to Illinois as soon as you heard about Tori, I start bawling. So many people have done so much for our family--but it is your love and service that touch me most of all. Cari, I can't even begin to tell you how much that meant to all of us. Thank you so very much--You truly are one of those angelic people that Elder Holland spoke of in his last conference talk. You helped Amy in ways that the rest of us could not. A million times, thank you...
I'll definitely be thinking about and praying for them.
