oh my goodness, again...

is she not stinkin' precious?


she would go wonderfully well with the flower girl in the wedding i worked at yesterday. this precious little girl's mother was the matron of honor and her father was the best man. she could not stand for them to be at the front, however, she was a calm crier, so it was not out of hand, just cute. at the rehearsal, she had on a precious mint green jumper with a white long sleeve shirt underneath, black tights, gold mary janes, and a black bow and her light blond hair. she was the epitome of precious, just like the girl above. sometimes i would love to be a child again. sarah and i watched little women last night together, and we were both basketcases. we cried and cried. we could relate to jo as she was going through her box of memories, and realizing how long ago that was and how she could never go back. i can never, ever be a child again or even a teenager. that's a little bit scary. it's funny how we spend all those years looking forward to being grown up and then you get here and realize how amazing being a child is! however, i pray that one day i will be able to raise one of these precious girls, just like ann and laura beth. what a task that is. but, one that i long to complete.

p.s. i'm trying to stick to some running. i kind of get annoyed by trends, sometimes, and know that everybody in auburn, al says... i have a brilliant idea. i am going to train for a half-marathon. well, i did complete one freshmen year, and it made me feel just fabulous. it was in nashville, and since then, my fondness for nashville (again, a trend, but hey i still have legitimate reasons to love the place) has grown. therefore, i want to run in this half marathon again. but, i know that i am not unique in that and i know that that does not make me some super wonderfully in shape person. but at the same time, it's gonna take a lot of work. anyway, all of that huge long explanation to say, to hold myself accountable, i am going to input a tiny little this is how much or how long i ran today... discreet. just so i will keep track and have a place to say... this is what i am doing. that's all! so... to begin.
