Sad

I have been debating whether or not I should write today because I am so sad. I just feel like every time I turn around, there is more bad/sad news. Whether it's someone being put into the hospital, someone being rushed to the hospital, or someone passing away, I can't help but ask "Why?" Some cases I understand it's a matter of time. Sometimes it may be too soon, but in most cases, these people have had a chance to live their lives the way they want, have a sense of adventure, see their kids smile and hear them laugh. Heck, even drive a car. Well, last night, I found out some news that has had my heart hurting ever since. 
One of the little girls who T goes to daycare with, who has been there since it opened, and has always been there smiling and laughing when I pick him up and take him most mornings, was rushed to the hospital. I didn't know until recently that she has had heart problems her whole, young life. And this has left me asking, "Why her? Why this beautiful, shining, energetic little girl, who lights up any room she goes into?" It just doesn't seem fair! I can't imagine what her parents are going through right now, or what her younger brother (who is younger than T) wonders is happening to his big sister. I just wish I knew what I could do to help. 
I told T last night that his friend from school was very sick and need him to pray for her. He looked up and me with those big blue eyes of his and just gave me a big hug. When I tucked him in, I just said, "Remember your friend tonight, sweet pea." When he woke up this morning, I asked him if he prayed for her, and he looked at me, and grinned really big and said, "Yes, Mommy", and gave me a hug and a kiss. 
I wish for this little girl to have a long and happy life. I wish that she gets better very soon and never has any more problems. I wish this for all kids.
