Racing brings family together

I am really slacking on my blogs and I apologize. I will try to be better. Here are some things that made me and others smile in the past couple weeks:

-I left the gym last week to find this note on my car

My sister saw my car in the parking lot as she was walking in for a class and placed the note on my windshield.

-I continue to feel blessed to have an amazing job where I meet extraordinary people.

-While I was at work last night, I received a message that the case I was supposed to work today was cancelled. I asked the mom whose case I was currently working if she had a nurse the next day. When she said she didn't, I offered to come back the next morning to help. She was ecstatic. The client had 2 hours of therapy the next day so she was very thankful for the help. She was also able to get a lot of errands done. I think it's safe to say that I made her smile and made her day a little better.

-My family has been racing karts for 15 years. I'm very thankful that our family has been able to stay close because of our love of the sport. My dad has been able to turn his karting expertise into a living. Even though he has paying customers that require his attention, he has still been able to provide a kart for me to race. It always makes me smile when I hear him say "Good luck kiddo. Have fun kiddo. Love ya kiddo" every time I sit on the grid. I also see him cheering me on from the sidelines. My sister and mom also come out to the track. It means so much to have their support. My sister often brags about my performance on facebook and includes #proudsister in her posts. This always makes me smile. When the races are over, my dad frequently tells me that I'm always his favorite person to watch race. Simply being at the racetrack, puts a smile on my face.
