Today we went to the memorial gardens to be there while they installed Hailey's headstone. It made me very happy to know that it was going to be in place by her first birthday celebration. We are very happy with the way it turned out. The only problem for me was that the bronze area almost seemed to be put on a little sideways so that the wording was slanted. The guy at the memorial gardens said they might be able to fix that for us. I really hope they can.

Aaron wrote the inscription under her name. It says,
"Holding you in our hearts until we hold you in our hands."

It is so perfect! I absolutely love it and the saying by Aaron is so touching. She is such a lucky girl to be a part of your family!

thanks for sharing these pictures! you are all glowing and, i agree, the message from aaron is very special!
Such a perfect headstone for a perfect little girl! You guys all look so wonderful! I was really touched by your testimony Sunday, and I am so glad that you shared it. I don't think you realize how many lives you have touched (and forever changed) with your strength and friendship! Thanks for being there for me even though it's me who should be there for you!!
