Starting young...or staying young!

Age is just a number and how we reach to it is all in our mind. I'm 32...but that doesn't mean I can't feel younger then 32. I've noticed that the last two weeks that I've been working out I feel better, I feel like I have more energy, but my mind is tired. I know and believe eventually it will all work itself out. I'll stop overloading my thoughts and realize I won't be able to "do it all." One moment at a time.

This weekend Makayla and I where driving and just talking about whatever she wanted too. I love those types of conversations. She doesn't miss a beat. She is aware at all times what's going on with everyone and everything around her. During our conversation she had asked me where I went in the morning. I told her that I had gone to the gym to work out. She asked if it was a place that she could go to, for kids. I shared that it wasn't, just a place for adults and with out missing a beat she said "well when I'm bigger we'll go together but for now I'll go to ballet and you go to the gym." Something about that statement just made me smile. She's good with doing her own thing, to do something she's passionate about...though she has no idea that she is yet, she just loves it. Isn't that what passion is?

It's moments like this that make me realize that sometimes I lose sight of my passion, that I wish as a young child I would of embraced the "healthy" side of life and made better choices growing up. BUT here's the thing about life, can't change the past, that's why it's the past. But there are two things I can do, change the present and the future....but most importantly I can be a great example to my daughter on how to make the right choices, to eat healthy and to be a pretty amazing adult...someday :)
