So race day is getting near....just 24 days away and I am getting excited.  Its going to be such an amazing experience running through the streets of little rock with a smile on my face.  The last time we were there it was intense (for Ryleigh's surgery and recovery).  I remember thinking back then that it would be good to come back to Little Rock one day under more relaxed circumstances and enjoy it.  While I can't say running a marathon is necessarily "relaxed".... compared to our last trip this is much more relaxed :)

I want to thank everyone for all your prayers for Ryleigh.  She is doing great and honestly our prayers are working.  With everyday that passes she seems to grow stronger and stronger.  For those of you who have never met her or have not seen her in a while she is about the sweetest baby in the whole world.  She has a wonderful temperment.  For all that she has been through in the first 8 months of her life I can't wait to see what her future holds.  She is a pretty special girl.

Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.  Thank you.
