You just do not know how bless you are

Again I am caught realizing how ungrateful I have be come. We take so many of our blessing for granted.
It is my cousins husband who was involved in the road rage incident in Murray and then shot. Please do not believe everything you hear as many important -- not news worthy facts are always left out. Eric has been married to my cousin for 10 years. He is a return missionary who married in the temple. They have two beautiful children that he loves and adores. There have been struggles in their life's and maybe even some bad decisions but I love him and his family dearly and can only pray angels will attend them in their time of need.
Our dear and closest friends Val and Wendy have just found out that their daughter who is expecting twins nest year has problems. The twins are a boy and a girl. The boy s fine. The girl has only two valves in her heart. There are three possibilities. It will either die and abort, it will be still born or will make it through child birth and has a life expectancy of 5 years and will need a transplant.
Here i am worried that there are too many weeds in the yard and not all the garbage got out on time.
all of these thing and many more seem so minor when I think of the trials these kids face.
Please keep them in your prayers as we are keeping them in ours.
