*****
If you want to find Amy,
Look for the bright purple laces on her Brooks sneakers
Training 5 miles here, 10 miles there, marathon ready
Sporting sunglasses and her running hat so she’s not to be noticed
A Garmin watch on her left arm to help keep a fast pace.
******
If you want to find Amy,
Look for her iPad Mini
Reading one of her favorite blogs before the lights go out
Sitting by the crashing waves and basking in the warm sun
Enjoying an ebook by Picoult, Grisham, or Gladwell
Or reading to her students books from Palacio, Applegate, or Creech.
******
If you want to find Amy,
Look for her on the PA Turnpike
Or sauntering along the sidewalks of Duquesne University
Maybe an escapade to Target to buy the essentials
End with a quick trip to Starbucks for a way to celebrate the day!
******
If you want to find Amy she’ll still be running, reading, and a rockin’ mom!
