race

today i learned children love to race.  especially uphill.  it doesn't matter how out of shape you are or how much you detest running, they still want to race and they want you to let them win.  if i'm forced to run uphill, i'm not letting you win.  does that make me mean? no, it makes me competitive, even against a five year old with a back-pack.  

lydia-you're shoes untied.

funny man-i know

lydia-you're going to trip

funny man-no, i'm going to trip you!
