Teen Health Group

I am so excited. Today I was able to talk to our JH principle about starting a teens health and fitness group after school on Wednesdays! I know that God has been urging me in this direction for several months. The only way I was going to do it was to jump in and commit to do it. This is how exercise and diet work. Just do it! Wow...I am beginning a new First Place Group at the Bryan First Brethren Church and now the Wednesday night teens group. I am pumped and now I need to start writing the program for the teens.

My daughter and I continue to exercise every day and will be going back to the YMCA to swim and play racquetball soon. The weather is getting cooler in the evenings and I am sure it won't stay this nice too much longer. Kristen is still very skeptical about exercising, but I am catching her saying things to her friends about how important it is. If I only live 30 more years, teaching my children healthy principles will truly give my life a purpose. I know that I will remain passionate about this subject and hope that I will live longer than 30 more years!
