Prayer Request

This past Sunday, my college roommate and sorority sister, Rachel, lost her husband. He died while supporting combat operations in Afghanistan, and gave his life for the protection of our country. As heartbroken as I feel for her, the best thing we can do is pray for her and their baby girl. Please hold those you care about a little closer, love a little harder, and keep Cpl. Porto's family in your thoughts and prayers.

Ugh, I hate it! I had never been to her blog before today, but I've seen so many other blogs that I read talking about it. I had no idea you two were connected. This just absolutely breaks my heart! They are definitely in my prayers!
