just another week in the life...

today was a good day, not only because it's love/valentines day but because we got our baby back. sick Zoe is a real bummer, i mean we enjoy the extra cuddles but the sick sad eyes and half smiles are a real doozie. so i'm happily worn out and glad to have had to jog to the park (since mama got her parks confused, wasn't expecting to jog by three parks to get to the right one...jeepers mama)  for our almost two hour playdate so you could let all that bottled up energy out, outdoors rather than indoors.
 now that could have gotten ugly. well a mama has to do what she has to do.








 including signing up for mud runs in an effort to live life fully at the best. as your aunt danai often remind each other, we can't just tell you and cousin jenny one day to live your best life and experience, chase your dreams if when we have no stories of doing the same to tell you. i guess we are on a mission to hopefully be your role models instead of you looking for role models in magazines and movies
i'm not a lover of the running, i do enjoy it and to run to raise $$ for cancer and with you strapped on papa's back cherring me on, well that's the stuff my dreams are made of. so in honor of Clemence, taken by cancer, i ran so maybe one day i can inspire Clementine.. plus it was loads of fun and there's nothing better than team sports to bond with your friends. even with our dear friend heather running late, the other girls who didn't know her from a can of beans, waited with me so we could run as a team instead of "catching" up. turned out to be awesome as we were the only six in our heat so no waiting on those ahead or rushing for those behind. just good ole girl fun, although it was pretty awesome to catch up and pass teams that had gone before us. so my dear if you ever want to run in the mud, you have one teammate right here. want to see what you might have in store,?? thanks to papa & heather you can...
