Smart girl

Feb 19,

Bella brought home this self portrait she made at school. Apparently all the kids got to write an adjective, a positive one, about the others in the classroom. And this is what most kids wrote about her. She was actually annoyed about the fact they said she was smart (I guess she was hoping for fun or funny) so I had to remind her that being smart is really, really good.

7 miles

Feb 17,

This morning I ran 7 miles with the running group - and I struggled. The first mile is usually challenging, but then I hit my stride. Today though it took me a full 3 miles to get there. My time ended up being good, so it doesn't necessarily reflect the struggle, but it was certainly there. I am glad that is done.



3001

Feb 14,

As an accidental gift to myself during Valentine's day I reach a significant milestone according to my running app: I surpassed 3000 miles.


Valentine's Day 2018

Feb 14,

So we are not particularly big on Valentine's day, but we didn't want to just ignore the occasion either. And since the girls still like to celebrate it with us, we all went out for dinner. Lionel got us pretty flowers too!

Family Lunch

Feb 11,

Today we had lunch together to celebrate that Tios found the house they wanted and made an offer on it. No pictures from the adults because we are not as cute as the kids.







Paddington

Feb 10,

Today the girls and I went to see Paddington 2. It has good reviews and we definitely liked it. It was a cute, uplifting, there-is-good-in-the-world type of movie.
