In case I haven't mentioned it a million times before, my Friday afternoons are generally reserved for spending time with my niece. She's going to be 3 on Tuesday, and I have only missed a handful of Fridays in all this time. I honestly don't know what to do with myself the rare occasion that I don't get to see her. Being an auntie is truly one of the greatest joys I have ever experienced!

She is quite the sassy little thing at this age and keeps us laughing constantly. I love seeing all of the energy she has for life and learning. Today she got me out of breath with my second workout of the day:

"Run in front of me Aunt Katie!" "Run next to me..." "Push me..." "Push me FAST!!!" "Push me SLOW!!!" "Let's both run..." "You pick me up and run with me in your arms!"

Whew, I think @actifit needs to add babysitting as an activity category. 😅 I don't know why I worked out earlier this morning because I totally broke a sweat pushing that kid around. Anything to see that smile light up her face, though! If only we all kept that innocent joy throughout our whole lives. It was a beautiful day to get outside, too, so no complaints for an excellent excuse to get some vitamin D.

Of course I have to throw in another plug for one of my online families. Sorry (not sorry) for blowing up your feed with appeals to vote for @steemitbloggers/#powerhousecreatives in the 10,000 SP delegation poll. If you haven't voted yet, please just take the few seconds to go do so. We're on the home stretch with a shot to still left. It has been so heartwarming to see all of the positive energy that has been floating around this week. Let's see if we can't keep it going!
