Update #1: Marathon and Picture A Day

I was a little ambitious this year with my blog. I made a few commitments on here that has been really hard for me to let go. I know this sounds silly but USUALLY when I commit to something, I do it with 100% of my energy and fulfill my goal. I guess the Lord thought that was a funny, undesirable characteristic in me. Because He has been "helping" me let things go.

Let's just say I probably took too much on this semester. I forget sometimes that I cannot do what I once was able to do. Since having kids, my plate is frankly.... smaller. And so is my energy, creativity, memory and I bunch of other things that if I wasn't so tired I could think of. My family gets the best of me and most days what's left looks like a bad crock pot dish.

So to the update....
I have run into people who follow our blog and they have asked, "so how's the marathon training going" or "what happened to the daily pictures."

Yeah. Something had to go. Although I am still working out most days, training for the marathon is not one of them. And I am still taking pictures daily but finding the time to post them has been another issue. Well there it is. I feel relieved.

Hopefully the picture makes you smile.
