In the crazy pace of yesterday, with the two big events falling on an always busy Friday, I forgot my camera on both occasions--AMAZING!!
Yesterday, was Meghan's second grade Fall Festival. She had a couple of lines that she has been practicing about Christopher Columbus and his holiday that we celebrate after "Lumber Day." I have heard her practice this in the car as she sat behind me for about a month now, always saying Lumber Day, and I would gently correct..Labor Day. I gave up a week or so ago, thinking that Lumber Day is sort of cute anyway. Yesterday, she marched right up there, took the mic and said everything perfectly--including Labor Day. She is so confident, she always amazes me.
Then after school, we rushed home, quickly changed into running clothes and headed out in the lovely Friday afternoon traffic to Gilbert, where we ran the Gilbert Days 1 mile fun run. Michael and Meg ran about 9:15, and Matthew and Jonathan ran about 10:30. There were so many little kids out there running. I ran with Matthew and Jon almost to the finish, and told them to keep going, and that I'd meet them on the other side. They reached for each others hand and held them together all the way through. They were so cute, and OH, was I wishing for that camera.

Bummer about the camera but I think sometimes we get so caught up in recording the event with pictures we forget to just be there in the moment. So how fun to just enjoy the events!
