Its Monday

Monday means back to school and swim team. That means a lot of time in the car. I am not sure if its the change of season that's in the air but tonight felt slow and easy. Even though I do the same drive everyday tonight that drive was beautiful. My kids felt it too. We felt the elegant stillness in the air. My son asked me quietly what I was looking forward to and I told him in 12 days I will running my first 50 miler. He was excited not because I was running a race but because I was getting to experience a first. He got to do the same thing Saturday. He had a first and I was there and he was very excited and so was I. Having first is wonderful at any age..
