Yesterday, Intermountain Healthcare hosted a Heart Healthy Fair at Intermountain Medical Center. I had to work, and the two oldest boys were at a Boy Scout Powwow, but I encouraged the Chief and his brother (who is living with us) to go and get their free screenings. Seth, of course, had to tag along with them. It wasn't a whole lot of fun for Seth, except that they were handing out free stress balls, shaped like hearts!
Seth was allowed to take one for each of his brothers as well! He was thrilled to present us with a heart when he returned home. Then somehow, the boys "invented" the old game of hot potato with the heart. Our family began playing this yesterday evening, following Noah's basketball game, which they won, and we were all hyped up for some reason. We played "hot heart" for a number of rounds, and laughed and laughed. It was difficult to convince them to put the hearts down and turn in much later than their scheduled bedtime. On a positive note, today is Sunday and they can sleep in, and they all still are asleep this morning!
This post is just an expression of gratitude for Intermountain Healthcare, my stable employer, who provides opportunities for the community to get healthy, for my family who enjoy playing together, and for our warm home that keeps us all safe on this cold, snowy February morning!
Happy Heart Day this week!
