On August 4, 2010 our hearts broke as we heard the Dr. say "she has anencephaly...these babies don't live" at our 19 wk ultrasound. The Dr. is wrong. Our precious daughter's time on earth may be short, but she will live for eternity with our Lord in heaven. During the few months we have her here with us, we intend to make the most of every second of it. Our hope is that she will leave behind more than a few short memories, but that she will leave a legacy of what it means to hope in Jesus.

Getting Ready to Race
Received an e-mail from the Dover Police, in reference to our event permit for Rachel's Race, ending like this:
"I look forward to working with you to help make this event successful and safe for all involved as you continue to honor your daughter’s legacy."
The word that somehow pulls my heart strings is "continue" - for one because I am and for two, because others know it. I also love that he refers to her race as 'honoring her legacy'. I'm just so thankful that the purpose isn't lost to others.
Rachel Alice, you will not soon be forgotten.... Not if I have anything to say about it... which I do and always will :)
Forgotten ??? Oh my goodness - not possible. This child has left her mark that is for sure, on many hearts and in many ways.
