Bad News

We went to the doctor today-- one of our twins passed away. We're sad...in fact I don't think I've stopped crying for a few hours now. But at the same time, we understand it's Heavenly Father's plan and we're just going with it as best as we can. We're very very thankful that we still have one strong baby. I take back what I said about thank you notes. If I could write Heavenly Father a thank you note, I would.

Oh Jenna, I'm so sorry. What sad news to hear--when you're at the Dr, expecting to hear something happy. I understand about not being able to stop crying. When I had my miscarriage, I cried and cried and couldn't stop. I was surprised at how sad I was- to loose someone I had never even met. It makes me cry to think about it--and you! Hang in there- each day will feel a little better.

I'm so sorry to hear that Jenna and Jake. Really really sorry. I'm grateful through it all you're counting your blessings...I think in many ways you've already written Heavenly Father a thank you note!!!
