An Apple A Day…

Do you remember my most recent “Dear Sierra” letter? Do you remember the part where I wrote about how she broke my little heart into two? The other day you said to me: Mommy I don’t like you anymore because you’re always playing with Brookie. It absolutely broke my heart because I try so hard…

Welcome to Mom On The Run…

Hi! And welcome!

This blog is about me – Janice, a wife, mother, employee, runner, softball player, internet addict and a completely obsessed New Kids On The Block fan.

Part way through the pregnancy running became too uncomfortable for me leading me to slowly back off on my running.
