Now it is a mental game, as they make me worry and lose sleep--that affects my workouts too! But after this week, I realized how much I need to run. I don't think I could have gotten through all this without the strength I get from running.Wendy at Taking the Long Way Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09934786207724059919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2647157930116406632.post-36761698208605386612014-08-07T12:11:06.546-05:002014-08-07T12:11:06.546-05:00Whoa....wait just a second...it was easier to trai...Whoa....wait just a second...it was easier to train when they were little???? NOOOOO please don't tell me that! Oh the things i have to look forward to. I dread the teenage years, but yet, I can't wait for them to grow out of this toddler age...I feel like you just can't win. So glad your son is ok!!! So many moms are runners and now we all know why, to destress!!!

Would he ever run with you? Just to have a little time together that's not so stressful? As far as it being easier when the kids were younger, I think the expression is, little kids, little problems, big kids, big problems. But don't tell that to your next patient with a baby who is looking forward to everything getting easier soon.....Mary @ Fit and Fedhttp://fitandfed.net/noreply@blogger.com
