Daddy-Date-Day

Okay, this may come off sounding a bit strange. After all, there is an argument to be made that during my unemployment I should have had Makenzie out of daycare and with me for the duration. There are, of course, plenty of reasons to do as we did, though, not the least of which is that she enjoys her friends and time at daycare.

But without getting into that too much, I want to share just how proud I am of my little girl (who is deep-six napping right now). Before breakfast she let me know that she wanted a Daddy-Date-Day. I make it a rule to say yes whenever I can to this request. I went for a run this morning with Brown Trout with Kenzie in the jogger. She would get out from time to time and run - our pace - for about 200 yards. Then back in the stroller (with a reasonable transition!) to rest before the next set. Awesome.

Then we joined our friends at the park and she went ape on the jungle gym for an hour or so.

Nothing unusual, I know. But It's one of the best days I've had in weeks. And I still got business done! Secured a new sponsor for the Mt. Evans Hill Climb and got a proposal out to another.

Tonight we're going to go see Santa and grabbing a bite out. And I know it will be just as much fun as my day so far.

If I don't get a chance to write again, Merry Christmas everybody.
