We can't always win...and it isn't always a race!

Last night Daphne wanted to go for a jog with me,  which left the others feeling left out.  So I took Ruby roo and Henry Dub out for a quick lap too.  Those littles don't get pacing and took off at a sprint!

Half way I reminded Ruby to slow down. I lectured :  "Slow and steady wins the race!"

She comes back "mom!  Slow and steady lost me the jog a thon last year! I started out slow and everyone passed me-  and I never caught back up!"

Lol.

Seriously-  that is my running story too.  

I love her.  Love her honesty and love that she wants to win a medal at everything she does.

I'm still learning those lessons-  but in the mean time...Ruby and I keep on "runnin"
