Guardian angel?

My mother in law called yesterday...
She went over to Mt. View to take care of Brooke's flowers, took the old flowers out of the pot to replace them, and discovered a little green friend :) In the bottom of the basket was a tiny, bright green, tree frog...still alive, but stuck under the flowers. She said she giggled at this...she thought this could only happen to us :) I have had a frog collection for many years and so everyone associates me with them. It was only appropriate that, for a few days, Brooke would have her own little guardian angel frog :)

I met a few new people this week while working on our church play...I took Summer with me today. As usual, new people ask me about her. Talking about Summer generally leads to talking about Brooke too. One of the main characters in the play told me he was a twin...one of 3 sets his mother had...2 sets survived, one didn't. He also had a set of twins that he lost. I told him that I understood it might get easier with time....he said, "no, it doesn't...you always carry the loss with you. But, we have a unique opportunity as members of the LDS church...we believe in eternal families". Brooke, and all the other lost children, will be reunited with their families and be together forever. Than he smiled and said, "that means we have to live worthy enough to keep this opportunity"...they can make us be better people...so we can make sure we end up with them again :)

I have talked about this with several other people, but for some reason, it meant a lot more coming from someone like him :) It's always nice to have a fresh perspective after a while...
