Last night the kids school had their Art and Science night where each class showcase different projects. Carolyn and Nick's class also made special flowers describing their mothers. It was a blessing and affirmation that in their eyes I am doing okay as a mother. Moments like this is what makes parenting such an honor.

Nature at it's best
Happy Earth Day 2015! What a great opportunity to appreciate the wonderful earth and nature that we have surrounding us. For the past few years we have made a trip to Yosemite, a simply breathtaking place. It never ceases to amaze me the natural beauty Yosemite has to offer. The kids love being in nature, going on hikes, and enjoying the river with the beautiful backdrop of half dome. I feel so fortunate that we live in an area that we can take advantage of this natural beauty and all that it has to offer. What is your favorite place to visit to take in nature?

Daily Motivation
As summer quickly approaches us I am more than ever motivated to eat healthy and exercise on a regular basis. I find that the more I try to focus on how I am caring for myself, the better my attitude gets. It is important to take time for yourself, but so often with working full time, managing the kids crazy schedules along with homework and housework, the time for "me" is left on the side. Trying to find that balance so that I can take the time needed for me and my physcial and mental health. Thinking about signing up for another half marathon, having a deadline/goal is always great motivation for me. Something about making the committment really kicks my training in high gear.

Strong is beautiful
I recently ran in a race in Santa Cruz called the She is Beautiful. It was a great run dedicated to woman and their strength and beauty. Along the route they had great inspirational quotes which made the run so enjoyable.
