Smile Train 5K :)

My office hosted a 5K.   So,  your dad registered to run and  you girls and I signed up to work the water station.  But when we got there Macy decided she wanted to run.  I was trying to explain to you how long 3 miles was knowing you had never ran that far before.  Plus,   you were not prepared to run you had jeans, a long sleeve shirt and some of your old play shoes on that day.   But then comes Dr. Lauren she convinced me that you could run from the 1/2 mark were we would be serving water.  It was still longer than you had run in the past.   So,  off she goes getting you  prepared with  new Bartlett Pediatric Shirts  so you would be more comfortable for the race.
 
   In  the picture you were serving water and then your dad comes along and pours water on both of you as he was passing.    After you dad passed the water station you took off I  ran behind you but you were much faster so i told you to go ahead.   note...(Your dad did not know you were running until you run through the finish line).   He was so proud of you as was I.       Since then,  you have been interesting in running and we have been timing you.   You can run a 10 min mile.    We have signed you up for your 1st real race the Go lucy Go race 5k.  That day I learned a Great Parenting  lesson.   Don't  worry about  technicalities but  "To say Yes more"!!!
