Hailey Rasmussen means Bautiful devotion. This is somebody who constantly works every day to be somebody better than who they were yesterday. This is someone who's felt the dirt and grime of life; pushed and dragged into the mud; someone who had every right to be just as cruel as the experiences she was put through. But she didn't.
