If you follow me on facebook or twitter, you may have already read about the recent tragedy that occurred. The family pictured above suffered the loss of their 3yo and 6yo daughters in a house fire this past Thursday night in MD. The 8yo daughter and father are in the hospital. The mother (a friend of mine) and the 6mo baby have both been released (to my understanding). The out pouring of love and support has been awe inspiring. This family has lost everything, and though their daughters can never be replaced, we can help them on their road to recovery! Please offer anything you have to give - be it thoughts, prayers, monetary donations, physical donations, etc.

and please, pray for this family, pray that they can find peace, love and comfort during this tragic time in their life. May God wrap his arms around them and bear up their burdens, may they feel our Savior's Love, is my prayer for them. I also pray for the rest of us, that we may remember our many blessings and never take them for granted, cherish every second that we have in this world, and with those around us.
Thank you!

I am a MD LDS Homeschooler and just saw this story. I would love to help them out. Do they still need breastmilk? I had a baby back in July and pumped a lot of milk. I would love to see it go to someone who truly needed it. Please let me know.
