2. I went for a run on the beach twice. There's nothing like running along the edge of the ocean. The last time I did it was exactly 20 years ago, but at that time it wasn't because I was "a runner." It was because a really cute Campus Crusade staff guy from my summer project asked me if I wanted to go. I thought I was going to die--not from love, but from my lungs collapsing. Going from never running to covering a few miles with a seasoned runner? I don't recommend it, no matter how cute he is.

8. Have you heard it said (and perhaps experienced) that marriage and parenting help to make you holy? Well, it's become obvious that my holiness needs additional catalysts, because I can add "owning a business" to that list. But that's a whole blog post for another time.
9. The Friday of Father's Day weekend was the annual Daddy & Daughter Dance at our church, this year with a "hoedown" theme. Gracie looks forward to this with the anticipation of a teenager attending the prom.
10. I just need to brag on my hubby a little bit, and the most tangible way to do it is to show a side by side of last year's and this year's dance pictures.
