Fiona is officially walking. Over the last few weeks, a switch has been flipped inside her and she's now practically running through our house as if she never knew how not to. Through learning to walk, she's once again taught me a needed and inspiring lesson about the value of persistence. The next time I'm frustrated and feeling negative about work or my never-ending to-do list or running or, or, or.... I'm going to remember Fiona learning to walk -- and I will get up and try again.

“The most essential factor is persistence - the determination never to allow your energy or enthusiasm to be dampened by the discouragement that must inevitably come.” - James Whitcomb
