The little things

• Today was a great day! One where I am extremely grateful for the little things. Cooking a yummy healthy dinner(my sister said I need to start a recipe corner), lacing up my running shoes and hitting the pavement all by myself, playing on the playground at St. Paul's with the kids when I pick up Tanner from school, hearing about Tanner's day and the friends he's making, watching daddy and the boys have a dance party in Tanner's room before bed, and reading books with Holden in his rocker and hearing his sweet little voice. Life is good. I am thankful. I love the boys when they are playing together. I love when Tanner is being sweet to Holden and showing him how to do something or when Holden comes to show me something.  Tanner says the funniest things lately. He told his daddy and I the other day at dinner that "he was playing so hard at school his face was leaking." Sweet boy!!  I love my boys. Holden is a climber. His new favorite thing is to climb up on Tanner's dresser and just sit up there like its where you are suppose to sit to read. Its so funny. I go in there and he has on Tanner's sunglasses just looking at books. "Hi mommy" he says. I am training for my third marathon. I love running. I love putting on my running shoes. It is such a great time to connect with myself and clear the cobwebs. It isn't easy. That is what I love most about it. I am grateful for running. I will try and post a couple recipes for my sister. She bought a house this week. I can not wait to go down this weekend and see my mom  and dad and sister and everyone. The boys are ready too. They keep asking about their Papa and Grammy! Thankful that they are just an hour and a half away!! I do wish we lived in the same town but grateful it is not far either. Well off to bed soon another day of being super mommy tomorrow.
