Aaron and I met in 1994, the day after I graduated from High school. We dated through the summer at which point he left to serve a two year mission for our church in Brazil. We wrote to each other weekly and continued dating after he got home in 1996. We were engaged in December of that year and married June 7, 1997. We went off to College for the next five years. We were blessed with our sweet Lexy just days after Aaron graduated and finished his board exams. Nathan joined our family in 2005. In 2009 we had our second daughter, Hailey. She went home to join our Heavenly Father six days later.
Hailey joined our family on Nov. 20, 2009. She was a beautiful, healthy, amazing baby girl. We loved her and were so excited about her being a member of our family. Six days later, on Thanksgiving, we went to change her diaper and realized that her lips, hands, and feet were blue. We rushed her to the emergency room where the doctors and nurses worked on her tirelessly for about 6 hours before she passed away. We later found out that she had spinal meningitis caused by a staph aureus infection. Her spirit is so sweet and so pure and we know that her life on this earth was not meant to be long. We love her dearly and miss her terribly, but we know that we will be with her again one day and look forward to that reunion.
