34

Turning 34 did not start out like I thought it might. At the exact moment the clock hit midnight, I was sitting in Children's Hospital with our daughter who had a fever of 106.4. It was a LONG night. After a few hours of sleep I decided to follow through on what I wanted to do for myself on my birthday, run a 5K. Bad idea. But, I did it and that's what matters. All of that, coupled with the fact that I had to return to work the next day after a fantastic summer, made for an emotional day. Anyway, here is a picture of me, at the end of the night, celebrating with the three people that make me the happiest.
