Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves.

Lanes and I went to Town Lake after work and I pushed her in the running stroller. She loves talking to strangers and singing “patty, patty, patty cake”. She seemed to be best at playing in the sunshine whilst running off from me. I love the feeling of the sunshine on my face and the fall that strolls in late October. It takes me back to school days and the feeling of being in love. This time of year for me always holds that same familiar, welcome back feeling that I forget about until the next year. It is actually too hard for me to find the right words. But I think Laney had a taste because she was giddy and silly as she took off with my phone and laughed in her stroller. And those sparkly eyes, they are so familiar. What a big girl she is getting to be. We are only a few days shy of thirteen months.

We enjoyed our time at Town Lake and I got in a decent run.

Have I mentioned, I am NOT running the Waco marathon? I think I have issues since the Hurricane Ike ordeal and mentally cannot get on board to fulfill this commitment. I am going to do San Antonio instead. Hopefully by then I will be ready and excited again.
