On the RUN......

My daughter is doing a program at school called Girls on the Run.....I have heard of it before, and it is very much in line with my philosophy heading into my empowerment workshops in the spring! So I am feeling like it may be a part of the puzzle somehow.....the timing feeling like it is important.....and timely.....But we did have to cancel our spring break trip to make it happen.....the practices being important......and she is also in a play, and the overlap would have caused a challenge.....so I am shifting my plan that week to make way for her practices! And planning a little fun getaway in between, and setting our sights on a summer trip.....but I am thrilled for her to be able to do this program....because I think it arrived at exactly the right time, and it ends in a 5K.....and each girl needs a support person....and well that is me for sure lol;-) But I am contemplating, training and running it with her:) It will be a nice added motivation for my getting back on my treadmill consistently amid my strength training.....so that is my plan! To get myself training for it too.....and the pieces of life....the ebb and flow never get less fascinating for me......the pieces arriving in their divine place.....and this program embodies health and self esteem for girls.....having lessons alongside the physical aspect of it....and I am just so hopeful it will be a beautiful experience for her.....a little light spot in her journey.....it was a loud YES in her heart when it came up.....and I am excited to see where it will take her:) We shopped for her birthday yesterday......I gave her some money for the mall, and my mom came with us......we had a nice day.....she was excited with her purchases.....and I think I am still so stunned that her 10th birthday is coming up this week.....denial some;-) in some instances it feels like a lifetime ago that I had her....and in others.....like it just happened.....it for sure has me in my feels.....I have said many times that my kids are my heart and soul.....and I have actively worked toward enjoying every single minute......knowing so fully that this part of my life is so precious......hanging onto all of it and soaking up every second, so I look forward to being On THE RUN with my best gal.....and watching how this program impacts her brave and beautiful life! Happy Sunday! Enjoy:)
