Jason and I have had some great discussions lately, about a lot of really important topics for our future.
We like to talk and plan for our future so it only seems natural that the topic of kids would come up. Growing up as the oldest of 7, babysitting extensively, working for 3 years in a daycare, and now being a teacher, I have lots of experience with kids. Like a ton. Like I'm pretty sure I could have sextuplets and do a heck of a better job then Kate Gosselin! :) However, I won't be trying that just to prove a point. Lord knows I'd probably pull my own hair out!
Right now we are seeking God and trusting that he will lead us in the right direction. I know he has a plan for us and what our future entails, I Just wish I knew what it was!! :) :)

Running
I have truly been loving summer. I cannot believe how relaxing it is!!! I been keeping super busy w/ my massive to do lists, but loving not having to drive 2 hours/day. Sometimes I wonder how much longer I can do this drive w/o going crazy. I'm just trusting God that he will provide something else when the time is right. I try not to worry but it's hard because I like to plan and not knowing the future, well it makes planning hard!!! haha
I ran the Park 2 Park 5 Mile race on the 4th of July w/ a bunch of friends. It was amazingly HOT that day and incredibly humid. I stayed strong through the whole race and finished in 49 minutes, 38 seconds. In my age division, I came in 17th and overall came in 389th. There was about 600 people- a huge race that's for sure!
However, I learned two things during the race. 1- when you get goosebumps while running and you're sweating like a dog, it;s a precursor to heat stroke, so get some water! 2. When your foot is hurting and you keep running, don't be surprised when you take off your shoe and your entire sock is covered in blood!!!! Yucko!! Needless to say, it was quite exciting. Only weeks to the half marathon- I'm excited and terribly nervous. :)
