A girl in the City: Never too old for mommy and daddy...

The past two weeks my parents have been a huge support for me. Two weekends ago I completed my first RhinO- course. It was something I decided to do with a few friends in my show. The Rhino consisted of 5 miles and 100 military style obstacles. I trained the best way I could for months before. As my dad and I watched youtube videos the week of...Lets just say I was scared out of my mind. With a smirk on his face he asked, "Are you sure about this..you could seriously get hurt?".. haha. It wasn't until about 2 nights before that I decided I really wanted my parents to be there for a little support. I text my mom that night and sure enough she jumped right in the car. The course was set up in a big circle so they could watch and see every obstacle. After each one I would look out to see their smiling/shocked faces and it kept my tired legs and sore arms moving. I was beyond grateful to have their support that day. It meant more to me than they'll ever know!

How cute are they?!

Then this weekend over our 3 day dark I got my wisdom teeth removed. My friend Tovah was also getting hers taken out and basically we can't do anything without each other lol so naturally I jumped on the band wagon. I thought I was now a tough girl having completed the rhino and all but I guess not. My mom called the night before saying if it was really bad she'd drive up. I was like no no I'll be fine;). Sure enough as soon as the Dr. woke me up I looked right at my dad and said, "call mom". HAHA Being the amazing nurse/mom that she is she jumped right in the car. There is just something about having your mommy and daddy around that makes everything better. Even as a 21 yr old I'm not ashamed to admit that sometimes I need them. Lately I have realized what a blessing it has been to have them living only a few short hours away. And especially the blessing of having my dad as a temporary roommate. At the drop of a hat they would do anything for me. I am oh so grateful for my parents.
