Saturday, August 22, Shannon and I participated in our first ever 5K. The Forrest Spence 5K. Forrest was an infant who was brought to us just hours after he was born - his mom was GBS positive (after testing negative) and he had contracted this as well. He spent just a few short weeks in our unit before going home to be with the Lord. But the impact that little boy had on out heart and on other patient's and their families lives will forever be felt. Here's a link to the reason we did it:

It was so much fun to get the girls out of the house on such a nice cool morning. Shannon was able to borrow a double jogging stroller and I brought mine. My time was 50.12 and Shan's was 50.14. Afterwards, they had donuts, fresh fruit, and rolls. Along with water. I also brought the kids some snacks, so we were able to have a little picnic afterwards.
