Off to the Races

A couple weeks ago the kids and I attended the high school track meet to watch one of our young women in her races. What an inspiration for the kids! Lydia's Junior Olympics were the next day and boy was she excited to participate. For a kid who struggles to run and jump and do some of the physical things other kids are doing, she sure doesn't seem to notice and stays really motivated to keep at it. Now she's sure that she's faster than Anna so she races her everywhere and wins too (which surprises us)!
The kids also think that we should race all the other cars on the road when we're driving. Now our family drives aren't complete without them chanting Go, Dad, go! Go, Dad, go! (and) Faster, faster, faster! What fun!

What a bummer we aren't there to race you to church! (Ask the Deckers, it was fun!) Anyway, just wanted to make sure you knew about the mission reunion April 3, just in case you could come :) I guess it's mostly the Waite's, but I think you had him for a while didn't you?
