Love

Our job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy.
That is not our business and, in fact, it is nobody's business.
What we are asked to do is to love, and this love itself will render both ourselves and our neighbors worthy if anything can.

Thomas Merton (1915 - 1968)

Boosterthon Fun Run

Here is Owen, running out of the tunnel with his classmates as each team/classroom is introduced prior to the start of the Fun Run.


The leaders of the Boosterthon got the kids warmed up with dancing before the run. Which got Owen waving his arms in the air like nobody's business.

"Hi Mommy"

More dancing. Check out the hard rocker in the background. From this alone, he must have cool parents.

O's favorite dance move of hopping in place with the right leg doing double-time hops. Arms are normally out in front, like he's holding the reins to a horse.

The boy has speed!

Look at him go!

Oh yeah, the pedal is to the metal.

This boy ran almost non-stop for 30 laps. That's 3 miles. Can I please get half of this energy?

They did a Buddies lap, which was cool to see Owen running arm in arm with his friend Nate.

Checking out the number of laps completed.

They stopped counting at 35, but Owen went around the racetrack at least 40 times. Wow!

They were tired, but very happy boys.

Best friends since they were close to three years old. Matthew is on the left of Owen, then Preston and Miles. I love these boys. Good kids, all of them.
