The Daisy Walk/Run yesterday was a fantastic success. 155 walkers/runners! My Daisy was honored, new friendships made, old friendships kindled, and the support of many. I cried, and cried, and cried on Friday. The emotion of the day to come was overwhelming. However, the day of, I was calm and peaceful and ready to honor Daisy and the preschool by speaking at the start of the race and walking the full 5K (plus an extra loop to catch up with some friends). Pictures to follow. Dad, as usual, was behind the camera. However, getting pics from him can sometimes be a little challenging. HAHA.

I am not sleeping well. I sleep until about 3 or 4 in the morning, then I am only half-asleep. Cannot figure out what to do about it. Considering taking a sleeping pill because when I don't sleep, I am not rested and I am not rested almost every day. Every day, I am finding that I NEED a coffee to make it through, then I make it through, but am exhausted about 9. Go to bed, sleep soundly til 3am, then am semi-awake again.

Just got home from the grocery. Need to do a few things, then I think we are off to dinner with Zach(Matt's bro). He just arrived home from the Marine Corp boot-camp. Looks good--wore his Dress Blues to church this morning. Think he's lost weight, but looks and acts more mature and polite! We are excited to spend a few days with him before he is whisked off to his next Marine Corp assignment.
