Angels... and my sister

For many years, I have loved the scripture found in Doctrine and Covenants 84:88; this scripture has taken on added significance the past several months... 

"...I will go before your face.  I will be on your right hand and on your left, and my Spirit shall be in your hearts, and mine angels round about you, to bear you up." 

Since Zoe was little, before I walk out of her room at night I have said, "Angels will watch over you and I'll see you in the morning."  I know that angels have been watching over Zoe the past several months... and I know my sister Robyn has been one of them.  I have felt a particular closeness with Robyn since Zoe has begun treatment... Robyn knows what Zoe is going through.

Exactly two years ago today, Robyn began her work as a heavenly angel, after her courageous battle with cancer.  I miss my sis in ways I can't describe... but I know that her work continues and I'm grateful Zoe has an extra-special angel to watch over and comfort.
