Dear Baby Girl,
Behold, Bob the Jogger. Someday, in the near future, when I am sweating pushing you
on mile two of a four mile run (a run I can’t cut short because it is an “out-and-back”
and I am already two miles away from home), and struggling with every heavy painful
step because I’m grossly out of shape, I will curse the day that I was excited
about this stroller. But for now… I am SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS STROLLER!
Courtesies of Grandma Tracy, this will be your chariot for
our adventures. A beastly behemoth, Bob is all-terrain, rugged, and ready to
roll. Bob was one of those situations where I researched extensively, and then
just settled on the top brand—wasting my own time and energy. BUT, I am not
disappointed so far. After your dad put it together, I took it for a little
spin around the house, and it glides with a smoothness akin to your own bottom.
I plan to take you to the monuments in this stroller, on (flat)
hikes, to the beach, to the fireworks, and for every run I go on once you are
big enough for it to be safe. I intend to run the Pittsburgh Marathon in May
(as part of a relay team… let’s not get totally 26-mile crazy here) and I will
be taking you on my runs to train for it. As my mother says, and her mother
before her, you need to get outside to “get the stink out of your
pants.” Who knows? Perhaps your dad will even take you for a leisurely jog, and
you will succeed where I failed to get him to go for a run with me at all,
ever.
We’re getting closer and closer to the day this stroller
will no longer be empty!
Love,
Mom
