Monday Moment for Down Syndrome - World's Youngest Marathon Runner

OK So I hate it that this plays whether you want it to or not, so if you haven't seen the video of Paisley White qualifying for the marathon yet, go to this link and scroll down on the right side and you'll find the video. You won't want to miss it!

Very cool! Way to go Dad...I've run two marathons and can't imagine pushing a stroller for 26.2 miles. Wow.

If I had a kid that cute I would totally run marathons just so I could show her off! Too bad I have no kids yet! I know when he was like "you did a good job today' I was like "must not CRY"

Did you hear the audio of that little boy going "daddy can you not run anymore?" when his daddy stopped to high five him. I wish they had a blog or something so we could catch up with them after her surgery/pray for her!

Ok, I'm tearing up now, how sweet is that??!! She is absolutely gorgeous! And what an awesome dad! Jeff runs during good weather and usually pushes one of the girls in the jogger (they take turns), but I can't imagine doing it for 26 miles! Thanks for sharing this. :D
