Last Wednesday my "runners" hit the Greenfield pavement for the first time since last July. It was a beautiful morning. With worship music speaking truth to my heart and mind, my eyes soaked in everything God's created and agreed with God that "it is good." Running is the perfect time for me to reflect on God and what he's doing in my life. I finished the run feeling renewed and fairly strong.
However, Thursday I went to the gym for a family workout. Bekah and I went to water aerobics to support mom and have a few laughs. When mom saw the instructor she quickly warned us, "Oh no, you are in for it now. She's a drill sergeant." Thirty minutes later I had to agree. I never knew water aerobics could be so intense. For example, we were running laps against the current of the lazy river. She liked to keep an eye on Bekah and I to make sure we had proper form. At the end of the hour she told me, "I'd like to see you in my Boot Camp class." I'm not sure what that meant. Nevertheless, I liked her spunk and enthusiasm.
The past week has been full of new family memories. It's been a long time since the five of us were together.However, Thursday I went to the gym for a family workout.

Thank you to everyone who has encouraged and uplifted me in the past week. The transitions aren't easy, but God continues to remind me to look to him instead of myself.
"shhhhhhh BE quiet!" ;)
