A homeschool family in my area could really use some prayers tonight. I didn't know them well but my heart is breaking for them as I have just heard from a mutual friend that their almost 2 year old drowned today while they were packing for a move. They have 4 other children. Please pray for them.
Thank you.
Jen

My heart is really breaking for the numerous families mentioned here who have lost toddlers or other family members to drowning in the last several weeks. So tragic.

I am so sad to hear this! It is a fear of mine, and probably every other mother. What a horrible nightmare. I am praying for them.

God bless,
Christine

Being in AZ we are painfully aware of loss through drowning. I'm praying for this family and am so sorry for their loss.

Love,
