I forgot to blog for a month and a half. Oops! Sometimes life and doing and working and being and learning and growing just take up all of my time, and I’ve decided that is ok. I walked/ran a half marathon through Washington DC. My littlest sister Katherine drove me to the Baltimore train station...
