This is just one of the many faces of Jennie--"The Platypus", which has made me smile for at least two decades. Jennie may be physically small, but she's HUGE in personality, and spirit, and confidence, and love. She laughs at Erma Bombeck books, cries at U2 concerts, takes spills in stride, and makes the world's best quesadilla. I just got off the phone with her, at the finish line of the half marathon she ran in New Hampshire this morning. In a little over 2 hours. She dreamed up this challenge for herself several months ago. It was a stretch to get ready, what with two little ones, and supporting Dustin in devoting himself to his studies, and the huge amounts of time and love that she gives to her sisters in Relief Society. But she did it. Like she always does. I'm so proud of my beautiful little daughter. I want to be like her when I grow up.
