Our Savior's love, shines like the sun with perfect light. As from above, it breaks through clouds of strife.

Fun Run

C and SJ have been begging to run in a race "like Daddy."  Here are photos from their first ever race.
 
Soooo excited!!!
 

 
 
At the starting line (Silvie and I cheered them on).

 
 
 
Watching them come in on the home stretch brought a little tear to my eye.  Are they cute or what?!?
 
 
They both did great and ran the whole way ("one WHOLE mile" they'll tell you).  When I asked C what her favorite part was, I was sure she'd say it was the snacks afterwards, or the bracelet she got for finishing, or the race T-shirt, but nope.  She simply said, "the running."  :)
 
 
P.S.  Clara got 2 stitches.  Here she is showing off her bandaid.  No accidents, just a suspicious mole that needed to be removed.  She was very brave during the procedure and can't wait to get the stitches out so she can go swimming, again.
