Running as a family...

...is an interesting task with a 5.5 and a 1.5. Today, Maryn and I headed out for a family-4-miler on the Douglas Trail. This was the first time we tried this, but I pushed Noah in the stroller and Evan rode his bike. Other than pushing Evan up the hills (thanks Maryn) it was a very enjoyable and fruitful time for the four of us. I was listening to Phil Wickam as we ran (thanks Christi) and I think it was a great gift from God to have a sunny, warm day (mid-40s) in Rochester on a half-day off.

"True Love" by Phil Wickam
The earth was shaking in the dark,
All creation felt the Father's broken heart.
Tears were filling Heaven's eyes,
The day that true love died.
When blood and water hit the ground,
Walls we couldn't move came crashing down.
And we were freed and made alive,
The day that true love died.
The Father gave His only son, just to save us.
