A Mom who works out...

So, I've been working out at home for a long time now. It's the norm at our house. Lately, I've mostly been working out (during the week) after Ella goes to bed, and whenever I can find time on the weekends. So, Ella gets it. She knows I need to workout. She'll do her version of squats & jumping jacks with me too. But tonight here's my story. We finished eating, the kitchen was clean & I thought we'd just play some legos, read some books, etc., but Ella noticed I was already changed into my workout clothes. Her: "Workout? Workout?" (about 3 or 4 times). Me: "No...a little later, not right now" Well, she continued to ask me and every time, I gave her the same response. Then, strangely, she started to cry! BECAUSE I WASN'T GOING TO WORKOUT RIGHT THEN AND THERE! She was physically pushing me up to get the DVD in and get the workout going. SO FUNNY! So, fine. I got my workout started and she was going to hangout with me and "dance". About 15 minutes into my workout I realize as I'm sweating like crazy, jumping around in cardio madness, that I'm holding a Barbie in one hand and a stuffed toy in the other. Made me laugh out loud. I know she'd given them to me a few minutes before but it's like I was paying attention, but not, if that makes any sense. But seriously, I guess the things Moms who workout do to get the workout done! Thanks to Ella for being my little motivator tonight. :)
