Guilty Confession

So I just hired a sitter so I can go exercise 3 days a week--on top of Karen who still comes for at least a date night once a week. I feel a little guilty about it, but I'm really loving it too! The big kids are at school, Hannah's asleep and Wyatt gets a one on one playmate so it's not so bad--that's my justification.

So now I get to run/bike on trails like this and it feels great!

Beautiful trails, quiet and fresh air. I just get to think my own thoughts. I don't even like to listen to music. I just like the rhythm of my breath to calm my frazzled mind.  I come home prepared and wanting to be a better mom.

On side note-- I love where I live. Limitless trails right out my front door. We're incredibly blessed to get to play beautiful outdoors.

And sorry to all Hoopes getting these posts emailed to them. This is really a journal for myself--I'll quit having it sent to you.
