    Wes,
    My heart is broken for you and your precious girls. As humans we all struggle to make sense of this but as Christians we put our trust and faith in God. My prayer is he will give you the strength you need as you continue. I pray God will wrap his arms around the girls and protect them.
    I will continue to keep your family in my prayers in the days to come.

    For all of the family, know that so many many people are praying for you all. There are no words that we, in our human feebleness, can take the pain away. Praying that the Lord will comfort, wrap you in his loving arms and carry you through this valley. Continued prayers .??????????❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
