A few months ago Derick started asking me to come running with him in the mornings. I kept telling him no cause I hate running and I think running is crazy. Anyway, he kept asking me and finally I decided why not? I need to do some sort of exercising so why not go running with him. So I told him I would, but not until spring. Well, I guess spring has happened for me - cause this morning we went running together. That is, if you can call what we did running... Obviously I haven't done this before, so we would run for a few then walk, and that's how it went - run, walk, walk, run, walk, walk, run, etc. It wasn't so bad, Derick is really patient with me so I'll do it again:) I LOVE the way I feel when I'm done! Now if I could just stop loving candy...

I went over to Heber to do an errand earlier today and on the way home I passed a park I took the kids to a few times last summer. It made me thing of Jake and how much he loved going there, so it made me a little sad and I cried a little. I sure do miss that kid. I do love my life though, and I am happy to be here, just a little sad about certain things at times.
