A little shaken

I read something late last night that has haunted me since then. For those of you that went to high school with me, you will remember Sara Pigg. She is now married and has 2 boys and was due to have a little girl this week. She posted last night that her precious daughter was stillborn on Monday. I sat there and read that and began to cry. Here I am only weeks from the arrival of our precious Luke and she has just lost her precious little girl that she was so excited to have. I do not know what happened but that is irrelevant. The fact that she carried a baby for 40 weeks and then lost her is heart breaking! I cannot imagine her pain right now. I could just see the closet already stocked with all of those beautiful dresses and perhaps a Baby's 1st Christmas outfit in there, too. I woke up all night with this on my mind. each time I lifted her and her family up in my prayers and prayed for the health of my baby and the health of another friend's baby (Erika). Please pray for this family and ask the Lord to comfort them in ways that we can't fathom! Situations like this really make you reflect on the important stuff!

Oh my... there are no words... none. I can't imagine. I have always considered this the worst possible thing to go through. I will keep her in my prayers. And your sweet little one and Erika's as well.

I've been praying for them since you told me about it Friday and will continue to do so.

Oh no. That is horrible. I think that would be one of the absolute worst things you could go through. I just can't and don't want to imagine. I am still just terrified something will happen with this pregnancy. I'll send up extra prayers for Sara and for you, as well.
