Kids....they keep you humble!

I gave up on the gym during the last month of summer break. My older girls don't like going any more but they're still too young to leave at home and I didn't feel like fighting over it every morning. So I worked out on the spin bike at home or did other exercises, but let's be honest: it wasn't anywhere near my usual level of physical exertion.

So the first day of school came and I was ready to go back to my home away from home. Nate, however, was not interested. In trying to convince him to buy in to our need to get there I told him I am out of shape. He studied me for a moment and said,

"Let me see your tummy."

So I lifted up my shirt and showed him my tummy, which I don't think looks too bad. He took a look and said,

"Whoa! Okay, we can go to the gym!"

So, so humbling.
