Sad days

Today our beloved dog of 5 years, Jazz, was hit by a car. Well, at least we think it was her. She hasn't come home in 2 days and there is a dead black dog on the highway behind our house. Greg said it was pretty unrecognizable. Our whole family is upset, but the little ones are taking it the hardest. They don't seem to understand the finality of it. Tony keeps telling me that Jazz is sure to come home, but tonight in his prayer journal he wrote that he hoped God would keep her safe in Heaven. Isn't that precious? Please pray for my kiddos to have peace through all of this. Thanks.
