March

This past month Anson, Mike and I have been sick with pretty bad colds. I think we are finally recovering. Anson has had it the worst and the longest. It's sad to see him suffer, especially when I couldn't do a whole lot for him. Last week Mike got a really bad flu or food poisoning, we still don't know which, but we are so happy its gone. I guess the positive side to all of this is having family around to help out with the sickness. That has made it much easier to endure.

Mike has been very diligent in preparing for the MCAT. He has about one more month till he takes it. He studies every morning and night and takes a practice test every Saturday. He has sacrificed climbing and most of his hobbies to prepare for the MCAT. I am proud of his diligence and hard work and pray it pays off.

When Mike gets a break from the lab and studying we have started running together up City Creek, a trail right next to my parents house. It has been really nice to run with Mike again because we haven't run together in a long time. We have been taking Anson with us in my new stroller. Running with the family is like a dream come true for me. I love it!!!

Jentri and I are starting to get into running. It is nice to get out and be with your spouse without all of the distractions. Mike, props on the diligence. We'll have to arrange a weekend trip to City once it is all over. You will do well! Glad you two are feeling better.

Talk about diligence Mike. Putting off climbing for studying. I'm sure it will pay off. Running as a family-- it is a dream come true. We want to keep our little one in the stroller until she figures out how to escape!
