Running Man

The boys and I left the house for the bus a few minutes later than we should have this morning. Peter took off running and I followed. Cooper started running as well, then slowed down, then sort of lumbered. Still running, I turned back to him and called out, "Come on Cooper! Run!"

His breathing was labored with the effort of running and talking, but he replied, "I can't. I ran a lot at field day yesterday and it's still in my body."
