Mail!

Here is an exerpt from an email I received this morning from my fabulous friend Ashlee. It made me laugh, hope you enjoy it too.

"Congratulations on completing your tri. That is so awesome. I am so glad you were able to accomplish your goal. And not only to master one event but three events, that is so great.

I don't think you know this but I too just competed in a swimming competition recently. It was called "the race for my sons life". The other day we were at our neighborhood pool and it was just us in the pool. I am waiting for Zach to jump off the side of the pool when I hear Noah screaming MOM HELP!. I turn and look and he had jumped into the deep end without his life vest and was now floundering in the deep end.

I don't think i have ever swam so fast in my life. Needless to say I won but he gave me quite a scare and the shakes for about an hour but luckily all ended well."

I tried to find a picture of Ashlee and me back in the day- but for some reason I can't find any pictures from my younger years- I'm hoping I didn't throw them out!?!?!? So Ashlee if you have a good pic- send it my way!
