On Sunday I completed my fourth half marathon. Wow, it’s hard to believe that’s true since “I’m not a runner.” I don’t run to compete; typically I finish about mid-pack for my age and gender. I don’t run to break records; though I was close to a personal record yesterday….
Today is a very special day- the magic number has arrived. My Taylor girl turns sweet 16 today;16 is significant for many reasons. Â Most would think of a driver’s license…dating… Â But for our family, Taylor turning 16 is HUGE simply because- we were never sure that Taylor would turn 16….
