not that it makes the situation any better, but i think about josi all day long....she has really reminded me of all the problems happening in guatemala and all the needless suffering that is happening there. i am really encouraged to do more for my child's country. which i guess is one good thing to come out of such a horrible tragedy. i can not stop thinking about her....i can not stop seeing her perfect smile in my head. i can not even begin to imagine the pain your family is going through....especially your little ones. please just know that your family holds a constant spot in my head and in my heart. i will never forget josi.

There are no words to tell you how sorry I am. Even my husband had tears in his eyes when I told him. It was a senseless, horrible act. I will continue to pray for you and everyone involved. God bless you.

I have been praying for you too as I heard the news on another forum. What a beautiful little girl. I know she is in heaven with our wonderful Savior.. I know that doesnt always bring much comfort as you would have rather had her here on earth. Whoever is responsible will have to stand before the Lord one day and see her face and know what they did will not allow them to remain where she now is.
God bless you and our prayers remain with you. Coachmom

I'm one of the thousands that has viewed your thread without leaving a message.
I was looking for the rights words, but they won't come. All I can come up with is that I am so very sorry for the loss of your precious child. Peace and strenght to you and your family during this difficult time. God Bless!

I had to first "digest" this information before I could post. It was just too awful to grasp. My condolences and prayers.

Carla,
My thoughts and prayers are constantly on you and your family today. During this process, I think we all wonder and think "what if" something were to happen to our little ones before they got the chance to come home. The reality is it's possible. I'm so sorry this reality has come to your family. I hope the warmth of your family's love will keep you strong and that you will find peace knowing Josi is at rest. Jeanne

all day today I am thinking - it is only 1 short week since Josi was so brutally taken from this world and her family - and yet it must have been the longest 7 days in your lives
please know that Josi and her family are never forgotten but always in our thoughts MK |

I simply can't stop thinking about you and your family. And sweet little Josi. My prayers and thoughts are with you always.
And if it's any consolation (and how could there possibly be?), it's that we all held our little ones closer in the past few days and stopped to appreciate the blessings in our lives. May Josi continue to rain down blessings for all the world to enjoy. God bless and may He heal your heart and mind after this unspeakable, unthinkable, unimaginable loss.
