On the way there, Jared and I were talking about how our weekends used to be so different. Back in the day we always had tons of plans that began at 9:00 pm and we didn't get to bed till 3 or 4 in the morning. Now our plans consist of staying home, playing with the kids, watching kid shows, going to the park, and more fun kid stuff. We wouldn't trade it for anything. We are so grateful to have our 2 beautiful kids.
On Saturday we learned of a family in our ward who's little 3 month old passed away during the night. When they checked on him Saturday morning he was not breathing. He died of SIDS. My heart aches for this family. He was Conrad's age. I just met her last Sunday, we talked about how the boys were the same age and how they had moved in around the same time we did. I can't help but think what she is going though right now. I'm so sick about it. I can't imagine what is going though her mind right now.
As sad as this experience is, it helps me put my life in prospective. FAMILY is everything. All the things that I thought were a big deal just don't seem to matter as much.

That is so sad, I'm so sorry for that mom. I can't even imagine.
Oh my..so sad. Especially when you have a baby that same age. It didn't happen to be the Chipman family did it? Cause I know someone who's 3 month old passed as well.
so so so sad. my heart is breaking for them and i don't even know who they are. you're so right. family is everything and nothing else matters. truly.
love you!
