Great Day


I had the best day with the girls yesterday. Our school had a Fun Run to raise money and after I worked out at the YMCA, I went to their school so I could watch them run laps around the track. Fiona's class was first and after she went around once, I figured out that I could hop up there with her. Fiona took the word run seriously and baby girl actually ran a mile. She has some serious moves. It was pretty impressive. I helped her get some water and a "popstickle". We took some pictures of her class and then Buttercup's class came out. Buttercup is more of a stroller. She said it would have helped had they not just had recess and Brendan had not been chasing her. I walked a few laps with her and her friend.
Then I went and got Fiona's meds. We are having to get everything together before we leave. Fiona and I came home from school and hung out a bit before picking up another prescription. We were nice enough to bring Daddy some Dr. Pepper.
As I was driving home, I was grateful for a husband who appreciates that spending time with the girls and supporting them is more important than coming home to a spotless house. Which would be hard in our current condition. I just so enjoyed doing the fun run with them. I might not have worked out so hard had I known I would be on the track an additional mile and a half!

Congrats on selling your house! That is wonderful that it happened pretty quickly. But I'm still so sad you're leaving. :(

What a great mom you are to run with your kids! Not to mention homeschooling them... I love fun run day, too. The kids get so into it, and I'm always impressed with what they are able to do!
