A Precious Child

The sun didn't shine today. It was overcast and chilly in Ogden. I would have liked it to rain. It seems on days like this that the heavens should weep as well. The life of a child was lost this morning. A future forever gone. My dear co-worker who I love so dearly unexpectedly lost her 13-year old daughter this morning. I actually just met this beautiful young woman last Thursday. I can't imagine the pain and anguish my dear friend Catina is going through. My heart honestly broke for her today. What can I do? No words can console. No flowers can brighten. No hugs are tight enough. It was a very solemn day at work. There was no laughter in Business Development today. My heart just aches. I have no more tears left in me. I wish I could take away her pain. I wish I could make it all better for her. I wish there was something more I could do. I feel so helpless.
