proud.

half marathons are a funny phenomenon. paying money to run 13.1 miles. there's some odd joy in the entire experience.

one foot in front of the other, they say.

mom had tears in her eyes when we crossed the finish line.




it was a moment i will always remember. just a mom in a sheer moment of proudness. is that even a word? it should be one.

happy mother's day, mom. we've had quite the journey, you and me. but, we made it. just like we made it to the finish line greeted with tears of joy, we made it to our happy place. we are both better for it now.

i love you! thank you for creating me. for giving me the gift of health among so many other beautiful gifts.

i wish you all the love and happiness in the world.
