new wheels

I could tell the whole, detailed story of how I had the strong impression that I needed to get Garret out with me on my runs.  And how I had to just shrug my shoulders and figure it wasn't meant to be, for now, when researching the cost of large, handicap-friendly strollers.  And how my parents showed up, a few weeks later, with an early Christmas/birthday present.  And how I'm stumped on how to thank them enough...  

But, for now, let's look at some pics-

Yesterday was our first run and though it was slow and more work for me, it felt GREAT.  Garret giggled and flailed.  I would stop to check his mood and each time he would rock forward with a grin, seeming to say- 'Keep going!'.   

And this afternoon, just minutes after walking in from the bus, Garret went to the stroller, sat down, and laughed with anticipation.  'Sorry, munchkin.  We can't go when Daddy's gone, but we'll go again real soon...'

I guess the best way to thank you, Mom and Dad, is to use it, use it, use it.
And we will, we will, we will!!!  :)
