The kids and I ran our first 5k together this morning! We had a lot of fun and Parker cheered me on the whole time. At one point I was getting passed by several runners and was totally frustrated b/c you can only go as fast the stroller and Parker goes,"Mom, noone else has a stroller and you are going really fast with one." Then, with about a 1/2 mile left we hit a big hill and he spontaneously broke out in the sweetest prayer, "Dear Jesus.. make mommy go really fast up this hill and help her to finish first."
Okay, so it was a bit of a lofty prayer but soooo cute and thoughtful. I think this may be the start of a new weekend hobby for us:)

Wow, congrats on finishing the race! That's an awesome achievement and hopefully Parker and Lillie will have fond memories of it.
