nervous...excited...?

Friday has come to an end.. and tomorrow is my first Triathlon. (ahhhhh) I am so nervous, so excited, and I should be winding down to sleep. This has really been a roller coaster ride getting ready for this, I had been training really hard for this the past about 9 weeks, 6 days a week going hard at it. This past Tuesday I got sicker than I have ever been, (even while prego) Wednesday was worse. (swine flu..?) I just could not believe it, just my luck. Thursday was alot better and I actually went and swam, when I got out of the water my body was just achy all over. So today I took it really easy, and am feeling alot better, but we will see how it goes. It really is just my luck. So I have been stressed, then tonight when I put Kloey to bed, I gave her a hug and kiss and got up to leave and she says to me,
"Mom, tomorrow you are going to run so fast like uncle Matt"
I said, "really? I sure hope so Klo, will you cheer me on?"
Kloey, "yes, I will yell so loud for you, you will come right to me!"
I got so teary eyed, and said, "well that is whats going to get me across that finish line, knowing you are there waiting for me!"
she was so sweet, she started to rub my face and said, "I love you mom"
Man I love you Kloey!
It was exactly what I need to hear. So simple, I have been so worried about it, but it really is just a race, being with my sweet family is really what is important. I get so uptight and carried away with what I am doing, I forget about the simple things that matter the most. So hopefully I finish tomorrow, if not I know I have sweet Kloey always cheering me on... no matter what!
