This post was a long time coming, but for some reason I have been putting it off. I am not good at putting my complete thoughts into words. I always assume everyone can just read my mind, as they should, right? Just kidding. But in all honestly, it’s hard for me to really describe the depth of my “feelings” so to speak. But here goes.
A while back I was asked to write guest post about what it’s like being a pro triathlete’s wife. Well, I never got around to writing that post because my answer always seemed to be changing.
You see, over 5 years ago I promised James I would be that support system for him, no matter what.
It’s led us down many CHANGING pathways. But I was ready. It’s no longer my schedule or his schedule, it’s our schedule. We’re a team.
That’s the thing about pursuing a dream, it really takes a TEAM!
For the past 5 years we have lived paycheck to paycheck, lived in several different places, and sold many things just to get by.
For the past 5 years we have gotten up at 4:45am each day. James goes to swimming, I prep the meals for the day.
For the past 5 years I have been by his side at most races. I have done the last minute tug of the wetsuit, I’ve been the “bag and gear” holder, I’ve been the “drop me off at transition” driver.
For the past 5 years I’ve been the one waiting at the finish line, I’ve been the one chasing him down for bike splits, run splits, etc. I’ve been the one cheering for him and others as they zoom out of the water.
For the past 5 years I’ve been the passenger on long car rides to destinations races. I’ve been the one who carries the food, makes the meals, finds good hotel rates, and takes care of the travel arrangements.
For the past 5 years I have seen a man win races, drop out due to injury, and fight just to the finish. I have been there to sit in silence after a let down. I have been there to hug , cheer, and kiss after a break through.
For the past 5 years I’ve been the one who rescues him after 2 flats on a long ride, or when he’s caught in bad weather. Yes, and I’ve been the one praying for safety each day too. 
For the past 5 years I’ve been part of a team. A really good team! James is the head, I am neck (the supporter). We function so much better together.
For the past 5 years we have been going through change. It’s ironic, because that’s the only thing consistent. Change. We know it’s coming. But maybe that’s the sacrifice we make? A consistently inconsistent lifestyle.
For the past 5 years I’ve watched my husband portray such strength, humility, respect, and determination. That’s why I love my job as a wife, a pro triathlete’s wife, a sherpa. Because being part of the THIS team is a not only a reward, but an honor.
Today the hubs went in for his second PRP treatment on his knee. We pray that this second shot will bring 100% healing and allow him get back to training/racing. But if it doesn’t, then God obviously has other plans. And I know I will always be part of that plan and part of this TEAM…. no matter where we go, what we do, etc.
So life, as wife? I’d say it’s special, it’s hard work, it’s worth every single bit!!!!

Check out Lindsay’s List tomorrow for an awesome Tuesday Trainer workout. Good stuff!
Wow, I know this is an old post but thanks for sharing it 🙂 So cool to hear your story. Praying for you guys!!
this is such a well-written post and so full of emotion. probably one of your best posts ever! of course, i’m devastated james is currently injured and everything is a question mark, but i know the two of you will remain a strong team no matter what! best wishes xo
oh thank you friend. We cannot thank you enough for your ongoing support. Glad you are doing well and racing well!
What a wonderful, fulfilling and unique life! Truly inspiring!
<3
You both have a level of dedication that most of us can only imagine – I love reading about your Sherpa adventures and J’s ventures into the life as a Pro. It’s inspiring, and really amazing to see what the other side of things looks like! Keep on, keepin’ on 🙂
oh Heather, you just make my heart fill with JOY! i know you can relate to this with D and i appreciate your ongoing support, encouragement, and HOPE!
I love this! My boyfriend is the same and always has my back when I’m doing my tri’s.
thats wonderful Kaleigh. I’d say he’s a keeper!
I love this ! My husband and I talk often about how our marriage only works because we are always on the same team and never playing against each other. For us it especially applies to raising kids..but really applies to any marriage
yes, totally! and i hope to do the same when we have kids. Thanks for the advice caroline. <3
I don’t know why I’m just now reading this. It gave me chills Lindsay. Your faith is ever so inspring and James is one LUCKY guy with you by his side. GOD is amazing and has put Team Cotter together for on heck of a ride. Hugs and prayers for you both!
and i am one LUCKY gal to have him. And one lucky gal to have such amazing support and friends like YOU!
What a beautiful post about a great team. You are one great “neck”! All the best with the PRP treatment.
thank you marcia. I am grateful for a good HEAD to support.
<3
Geez, I think Cam’s lucked out in me! I won’t be letting him see your post or he might trade me in! You’re fricken Wonder Woman! Aroha from NZ.
An absolutely beautiful post! LOVE!
<3 to you!
<3…so sweet.
<3 you are sweet!
Wow! Great post! I hope he is on the mend.
He’s working on it. Thank you Leonor.. Happy Friday!
Great post 🙂 Its obvious the amount of hard work, love and support the two of you share- and I admire your go with the flow attitude. I really hope James feels better and can continue to pursue the dream 🙂 Sending healing vibes your way!
thank you so much! The support we receive brings so much healing. I know you know this! And we are thankful that we can pursue this dream. Cheers friend!
Hey girl, so far so good. after gimping thru St Croix I decided to just call it and skip KS and BSLT ( lost some good $$ to WTC but…) and be good for IM Wisconsin. I am a bit slow but i am running and 6 weeks post PRP I can say that it has worked. I had prolo ( saline) and it worked long ago, but all my tennis lunging came back to haunt me as i went to Tri. Be patient, do the rest, do the exercises ( eccentric for me, guessing the same for him) and it will work, the ones i have heard it doesnt get back too fast. Our bodies are amazing, if we let them be!
oh thank you for the update! Glad you are taking care of yourself. seems like we all need a little R&R these days. This is james’ second shot, so we are hopeful that it will be good for next season. Hope the same is with you!!
Hey you know i just got a PRP injection in my HS insertion. You want to let that inflammation hang around for a bit, 6 weeks, so go easy on the antiinflammatory foods for now. I am sure you were told no NSAIDs. with the right manual work to break up whatever is going on in those injection sites i am sure he will be like new. So far so good on mine. Lots of luck to you both, the TEAM!
XOXO
oh yes, meant to say that! no extra supplements for anti inflammatory. Just mean to focus on fat/protein sources for fuel. thanks for clarifying Julia! how are you healing?
You rock, that is all…..
and i would say the same right back. You rock MAMA!
Oh friend, this brought huge tears to my eyes. You are the most beautiful person I know, on the inside and out — and your husband? He is one lucky, lucky man now isn’t he? To have such a loving, devoted, committed, adoring wife by his side no matter what. And you? You’re lucky as well – to have a husband who adores YOU and appreciates and respects all that you do for him and together, you’ve become this amazing dream team of a couple. NO matter what life throws your way, you two always find a way to smile through the stress and the joy along the way. I admire you both SO SO much. xoxoxo
i think that’s what helped, is finding joy in the midst of trials. Because really, joy is all around, right? We just need to open our eyes! Love you so so much!
Great post, I really enjoyed reading this. It sounds like the two of you have something special. In tough times I remember what I was told as a kid “The cream always rises to the top”.
thank you scott! i love that saying. will definitely be using it. Cheers!
Beautiful!
<3 to you friend.
I love the way you describe your teamwork, it makes me smile and give me goosebumps. You are living out God’s plan and supporting each other in the process – you both inspire me! Know that I am praying for you! 🙂
oh Heather, thank you. You inspire us daily! you are a wonderful prayer warrior, so thank you!!
I’m late to this post, but I love it. If everyone approached their relationship with a team mindset, a lot more success would be had 😉
so true abby. Maybe we need more TEAM BUILDING techniques in elementary, yes? hehe. But really, thank YOU! I appreciate your words more than you know!
you are more than just a neck, my friend, you are the spine – straight and strong and supporting from head to toe. seriously, your views on marriage (on team-work, really) are so inspirational and true. there is good and bad but there is always two. two hearts, two lives, two members of an unstoppable team.
oh Tianna, you are wonderful. I like being the spine. It’s long and curvy. hehe. But thank you, our two hearts appreciate YOU!
What a great way to remind yourself of your purpose, and to remind us about keeping perspective on what’s important in life! It’s not silly jobs and big paychecks—but following passions and supporting people we love! You’ve got the ultimate teamwork–sounds awesome to me 🙂
i know you know the rish involved in following your passions, but so worth it. yes! thanks lisa!
That was so well written. You are an amazing support to your husband and I like how you sum it up that you are a team. Can’t wait to hear how the knee is doing. I hope and pray it is better each day.
thank you beth! prayer are like gold to us. We cannot thank you enough.
That James Cutter is one lucky fellow…
(I know you feel you are lucky to have also him 🙂 of course)
Clearly you guys were meant to be. Not all couple make a good team..you guys make a GREAT team..it is rare even for couples who do make it and have a long life together. Wishing James all the best with PRP treatment.
that has to been one of the nicest things anyone has said. I will take those words and hold them dear. I will try to live each day as that TEAM. I feel blessed to be part of it. I know you and your family make one Heck of a TEAM. It’s beautiful Caroline!
Beautiful. I am glad that I have gotten to witness this team in person. Love to you both. 🙂
oh you’ve done more than witness friend. you’ve been there for us, thick and thin. thank you both! <3
You rock. Plain and simple. I loved this post and I KNOW James loves you and all that you do as a team. Thanks so much for sharing this really well written “behind the scenes” look for us!
thank you for listening. and i know you have one amazing TEAM called FAMILY! unreal! so blessed.
WOW. Love seeing God’s work in people. Such an amazing blessing. I am inspired, humbled and joyful over the bond that you two share. I feel the same way about my husband. Head/neck. Perfect description. Gods design for marriage is just so beautiful. Praying that you both will receive comfort and confidence in His plan for your lives!
you are one amazing wife cinnamon! i see the way you care for those kids, amazing NECK! xoxo
awww…shucks….thanks lady. 😉
Wow Linds…reading this post gave me the chills! It’s totally obvious how much you love, care for, and support James! I loved reading this and getting a glimpse into all of the things that you do to help keep your team strong :D.
and he does the same for me. It’s not a perfect marriage but one you work so hard to care for , ya know? Thank you for the support linz! i wish the best for you and chris. praying for you guys!
You guys are absolutely adorable and how a couple should be- inspiring and supportive of each other. I hope to find that one day…
xo
i think with your passion for life, you will. and that person will want to be there or you, every step!
There are no words to describe how inspired I am at your selflessness and dedication…your husband is so very blessed, but I am sure he already knows this.
he is way more selfless than me, and i am lucky to have him. so i guess it evens out, yes? hehe. thanks lisa!
OH MAN…I love this post, Linds. I was holding back tears because it touched me so much! This is who we are called to be as wives and as followers of Christ…thank you for sharing this. Well done supporting and great work being such a wonderful team together. God is good and I pray that he continues to lead and guide you both regardless of the outcome physically for James. Love you guys!
Bonnie, you and mikey have been an amazing example to us. the way you support each other and love each other through the trials of life is what gives us hope. And such God given strength! thanks woman, i just love you!
Lindsay — I LOVE you. This post made me tear up at work.
You are amazing for being able to go on this journey. I hope and pray that he will get better, but you know what? I know that something good will come your way regardless of what happens!
yes! i can feel it! good will come, just focus on the journey, right? We are SO SO THANKFUL for you in helping us. Big LOVE to you Calee!
no problemo! you are awesome, and I like awesome people. 🙂
Amazing post. You do so much. I never would have realized how much goes into being a professional or the wife of one. I hope his treatment today goes well so you can go back to you normal, unroutine, routine.
we’re hoping and praying for the best. Thank you abby!
I love this!! God has a wonderful plan for you two, and I can’t wait to see what he has in store for the both of you. I love how you support James. You two are an incredible witness of what marriage should be! Love you friend! Keep us posted on how his treatment goes!
Love you. and thank you for being such a Godly example! <3
For some reason this post brought tears to my eyes. I get it! I get the dream, the desire, the passion, and I just so pray that the team can move forward and do what they do best. Thoughts and prayers are with you both today. No matter what I know for a fact that you are doing exactly what god wants you to be doing right now and you will always be a team no matter the outcome.
i know you can relate and that your TEAM is your family. What an honor it must be to have them by your side and vice versa. <3
I LOVE THIS! beautifully written and i appreciate that you took the time to share this with us LC:) I think you all are one lucky team to have each other! I admire the strength you all have together, the will to carry on/fight, that you all simply enjoy each moment together no matter what!
thank you Julia. Teams are made with this sport, in friendship, in marriage, in family. You know you have a pretty awesome team too!
Amazing. Simply amazing. Both of you. The support system is the greatest thing in the world whether it is from friends, family, strangers or most importantly, a partner. I couldn’t do what I’m able to accomplish without my wifey. She doesn’t go to the lengths that you do, mostly because I am not a PRO, but just me being able to leave the house early in the AM while she stays with the baby is enough for me to be oh so thankful. We are a team, just like you, in all sense of the word.
yes, your wife and you are a ROCKIN team! A team to show your child what health and balance is! that’s good stuff! You both are appreciated.
Lindsay, you are a pretty amazing wife and sherpa and you guys are a pretty amazing team. Hands down. You handle a tough and demanding role with grace and dignity and love. Fingers crossed re: James’ knee treatment.
oh i try, but I think God’s strength is holding us tight. thank you Christine for amazing words of hope! I could and WILL say the same thing about you, your family, your motherhood!
love this post 🙂 you guys make such an awesome team. i love it!
<3 to u! and get your butt to austin!
wow. you need a medal yourself! i think the idea of living paycheck to paycheck would freak me out! i’m a risk taker in all things except where stable income is concerned lol. i am a bit of a worrywart so i’m constantly saving…money is the only thing i ‘stockpile’ because i live in a spartan apartment. i try not to have too many ‘things’ to get in my way of life-living!
you said something that really strikes a chord though…’A consistently inconsistent lifestyle.’ this must be somewhat freeing no? a life lesson in itself!
that is hard for me too. Paycheck to paycheck means lots of prayer, lots of hope, lots of trust, lots of last minute work findings, BUT it’s worth it. Maybe that’s our risk, yes? xxoo
WOW! I love this post! You are so dedicated Lindsay… and I really see the talents that God has given you shine through your blog in in your life. I pray that He continues to guide you and James and that you guys are as successful as you deserve to be!!
that just might be the best reason to blog, right there! thanks allie!
wow…that post was so strong and sent out so many messages. and good for YOU to give yourself praise in all that you do…..women often don’t do that, we just take it forgranted that this is our “job”. but you put it in words in such a way that it speaks for all of us…whether our hubbies are pro triathletes, blue-collar workers ,labourers or professionals or…… so, thank you for that!!!!
oh audrey, you just fill my heart with hope! thank you for these words. Yes, our “JOB” is a gift.
You guys make me all warm and fuzzy inside. Your love and devotion to each other is so admirable. You really do display the TEAM work that goes into marriage and that it is such a blessing despite the effort…or perhaps because of the effort. To know you are loved that much and that you love another that much. Beautiful post!
well i think the same of you and peter. an amazing support team for your family! Blessed! thank you tina, for always encouraging!
This post is so beautiful! You guys are clearly an unstoppable and inspiring team. The good and the bad is all figured out through team work. I’ll be thinking hopes are prayers for the knee! Good luck to James!
thanks lisa. good and bad is reality but so much better together, yes?! Happy tuesday!
Love it!!! While neither of us are pro’s around here, the entire idea of being a team and supporting each other is 100% true. You are both loving life by making the choices that work for you and that’s wonderful
yes! and that’s what makes it even more special, ya know?
God knew James needed a wife like you! It takes a strong woman to be such a support through the ups and downs of a professional athlete. I admire what you do Lindsay and you inspire me to have that desire to support my husband as well. Thank you so much!
Good job girl!!
Nicole
And god knew i needed a very patient man, haha. But really, thank you Nicole. You have taught me more than you know about support. xoxo
You guys are SUCH a good team. I can imagine it’s not the traditional path or journey of a married couple but it’s YOUR journey! You guys seem to be just made for each other 🙂
true true, and what a journey it has been! thank you for always being there to encourage paige.
what a great post, you are so awesome and supportive! He is a lucky man!
i’m a lucky woman too. I know you can relate heather.
Beautifully written Linds.
I’m so glad you finally got the gumption to sit down and put it out there. Prayers for the team <3
i had to look up the word gumption. and now i love you more. but you knew that, right? <3
We are not pros at our house but DEFINITELY have to function as a true team. I love this, thank you!!!!!
pro or not pro, it takes a team. amen!
Awesome story!! I love how you both are each other’s support system. That’s so great! Gives us single people some hope LOL :-D! Thank you for your great post as always 😉
there is always hope. xxoo
i love this post LC. i am in my first relationship with someone who is not a triathlete/runner, and i have been curious as to what it’s like being on the other side. you and JC are such an incredible team – ying and yang – and provide such support and guidance to each other. you are the best pro-triathlete wife and you are SO much more than a sherpa!
ying and yang. i like that. i think it’s important to be the support and have it. I will be your sherpa anyday!! p.s. how are the healthy bites working out?
This was great! What a great team you are!
Thanks for sharing your story! (and good job on TT!! :))
thanks andrea. We Appreciate that!
and the tears just keep coming.
Thank you so much for your beautiful post on teamwork. I am not married (yet?) to my bf of three years but this is the relationship I would like to think we have too. We take turns being the sherpa but being a part of a team is better than any solo journey. And yes, the change is constant.
I pray that James finds healing in his treatments and that the Lord continues to provide guidance and unfailing love for you. THank you for being an inspiration!
you already are a great team and God is building you up stronger right now. that’s amazing! thanks for sharing this and thanks for your prayers sarah.
Wow, by far one of my favorite posts from you. Almost brought tears to my eyes. You two were destined for each other in every way, and to see this level of devotion, love and loyalty is beautiful. Xoxox
well you know how it is to have someone who truly is a best friend, a support, and the love of your life. <3
You should earn medals as well my dear. A thank you, or you’re amazing doesn’t cut it. You have done more than sacrifice and you’ve done so happily without complaint.
This is beautiful post about teamwork and support. You’re the backbone.
i don’t need medals. but thank you. Instead, just give me a glass wine and a foot rub. deal? haha. love you!
Gosh I love coming over here and reading your words Lindsay, you two are just an amazing team! I am praying for his recovery of course!
thank you Tessa, your prayers make fill us with such support! cheers!
You two are an amazing team! Such an inspiration! Teamwork really is the only way to make things better! The good, the bad…it’s all better with teamwork! I hope things went well for James. You know I’m praying for a full recovery and quickly!
you do so much for us sarena. your thoughts, prayers, support are always appreciated. I am thankful for you and tony. You set a great example of how to be a team in life!
Beautiful post my friend. I love this so much. You guys make an amazing team. A very special relationship.
and we have a very special support crew, like YOU! much love friend.
I love this post. Made me teary eyed! I hope all goes well with his 2nd treatment! What an amazing adventure.
thank you sarah. Lots of hope!
Love this post! Thanks for such an honest glimpse into your world. You have a tough role, my friend! Even though I’m sure you love what you do, I am so impressed… supporting a pro athlete takes a lot of sacrifice. And you have done it so graciously. Praying for good knee news- it’s stressful enough for me with an injury, and I will never be winning anything. 🙂 And/or praying that the next steps will become evident.
YOu win everyday as a mom who is teaching their kids about health! that is sacrifice and that is amazing! Thank you for prayers Laura.
I just re-read this again this morning as I’m drinking my coffee & loving it just as much as I did last night. It’s so honest & open. Love the consistently inconsistent/embrace change. I need to learn this skill…I’m not sure I’ve been embracing all the inconsistencies in my life!
You & James have such an amazing relationship- it inspires me.
you’ve been on quite the journey yourself Bre, but one that has made you stronger! Keep going! I believe in YOU!
What a sweet post! My thoughts are with you and your husband and I hope for a quick and speedy recovery!
thanks you danielle. We hope for a full recovery indeed!
I love this post. While I’m not {yet} married, this is the kind of marriage I want to have…you take on each other’s dreams. You recognize other’s passions and you encourage the pursuit of them together. I’m inspired. Thanks for teaching me this.
And i am so thankful to be able to do just that Katie. Life is too short not to pursue those passions, right? Hugs!
you are so amazing, Lindsay! A true helpmeet – just the way God designed you. I’ll be praying for the knee, but most importantly, for God’s will.
you are amazing for sending me that book. It’s been life changing! and yes, God’s will, thank you for praying that! To HIM be GLORY!
Commitment and dedication are the foundations in life whether it’s being an athlete, eating right or just living and loving your spouse. I hope James’ knee gets the o.k. but I’m sure whatever path you are headed on will be the right one for both of you. Good luck!
yes, yes! That path is good, we just need to focus on staying on it, where ever it leads us. Right on Angela!
This was one of the most beautifully written pieces EVER and such a testament to you, James, and your marriage. Marriage is an endurance sport too, with so many ups and downs but it seems like you both bring ample patience, thoughtfulness, service, and love to yours. You made me stop and think about my own and what can I be doing differently? Thanks for sharing —
thank you Cort. Like i said on FB, your words are CHERISHED!
Great post Lindsay, you said everything so well. I heard today, “Tell the truth, all the time, with compassion”
I’ll have both you and James in my prayers and I know he’s going to be back to rocking it soon!!
your prayers are freaking awesome chuck!
Beautifully written post! I especially love you saying James is the head and you the neck. As a Soldier’s wife I can completely relate to that analogy. Marriage is a TEAM effort and you two master that wonderfully.
Lindsay, you have got to be one of the most selfless women I know. I really had no idea how much you do as a pro triathlete’s wife! I am amazed and impressed by your positive spirit and your willingness to adapt to constant change. I’m sure that it probably gets tough and lonely sometimes but you are such an inspiration! I hope that whatever is supposed to happen at this pivotal point in your lives brings with it new and better things! xoxo Meg
oh goodness, i feel as though many other woman are much more selfless. But thank you. I GET to be wife and a supporter and that is huge blessing.
You’re a star. You and James are one seriously awesome team….. LOVE 🙂
we love you LOU. Please move here. <3
My husband is not a pro triathlete, but he’s a competitive amateur, and I can relate to so much of what you’re saying here. However, you are SO MUCH BETTER at being an athlete’s wife than I am! You are a rock star sherpa, girl. ANY pro triathlete would be 10x better w/ you at their side!
Your husband is a rock star!! and you are a rockstar athlete and wife yourself. That i know! thank you for your kind words.
linds! i love this post! it really resonates with me because i feel like i live both sides of this equation—sometimes sherpa, sometimes the pro, sometimes both?! full-time sherpa, though–that’s legit. much respect to you , my friend. thanks for sharing and please keep us posted on james’s progress xoxo
yes, you have both jobs. I don’t know how you do it either?! YOu are a CONSTANT inspiration to us Hillary!
Love, Love, LOVE this post!! It really did help me understand life as a pro-triathlete’s wife, the sacrifices you’ve had to make, but also the great celebrations as you break through things together. Thank you for taking the time to develop these thoughts and put them out there for all of us to read!!
Kelly, thank you. the sacrifices are nothing compared to the joy it brings me to support this man. Cheers!
I love YOU and you are the BEST sherpa in the world! I know your husband appreciates, loves you, and is so grateful for you! What a sweet post! You are a great woman, and you better know that! A great “TEAM” you both are!
I am sending love and hope that his knee gets all better and I love your outlook if things don’t heal, it is in gods hands and he will have other plans! <3
and i appreciate him. Just like you do mike and HE IS SO SO LUCKY to have YOU! Love you!
I love this post! You are a champion wife. What a lucky husband you have — and I’m sure you are just as blessed to have him! You guys are adorable, always.
oh chris (can i call you chris? hehe) thank you! i am VERY blessed to have him!
Sending positive thoughts your way. Things have a way of working out the way they should and no matter what, you guys are together and THAT is the BEST part.
so true! a journey together is the most important part. thanks Jill!
This was adorable! you are both too cute for each other 🙂
oh thanks Britt. I feel special to have married such a man. <3
I just found your blog – and I’m a huge fan! This is really a fantastic post, I’m an aspiring athlete myself and it’s so true, we get absolutely nowhere without a support system (mine is my parents at the moment haha). James is so lucky to have you! I’ll definitely be praying for a good outcome with his PRP treatment too. I’ve been struggling with injuries a lot this past year and had a lot of success with PRP for my iliopsoas – it did take two treatments actually, so hopefully this is the last bit James will need!
well thank you Kate. So glad we could find each other. And i am even more thrilled that you have a support team to cheer you on. Hope your hip is all healed and you are back to racing. I’ll pass on the good news about the PRP treatment to james. Cheers!
You are a team – and one that I aspire to find some day! Love this post and totally support you both!
oh i just know you will meet that match. And if I could, i’d be your sherpa, anyday!
wow, I this is one of the best posts I have read in awhile. Girl you are amazing, both of you are. Your story, everything you guys have been through and experienced. I only wish James all the best with his knee!!! you both deserve the world
Lori you are amazing. I truly am thankful for your ONGOING encouragement. Sending hugs and love!
you just make me smile. i love your outlook on life – so admirable and refreshing! praying for james’ recovery! God indeed has a plan in all of this!
He sure does. now we just need to pray for ears to hear, amen?! xxoo
oh, Mama Sherpa. you two make the best team. you have an incredibly important job that you execute extremely well. you rock, lady, big time.
will add a prayer for James and a successful treatment. <3
thanks Kris. We need those healing powers and prayers. Tell Basil to say his prayers too. hehe. <3
awww… I will! XXO
What a great post! I have faith in James’ treatment today. Thinking and praying for you both! What a great journey you’ve been on!
Maren, i think prayers are the best support ever! thank you!
I love every single thing about this post! People always say being a pro is hard but you don’t often hear about pros spouses. Really, I don’t think they could manage without.
You two are an incredible team, and I’m sure amazing things are just around the corner. I really, really hope the second treatment is just what was needed.
i think any kind of athlete needs this kind of support! i know your hubs is a huge support for you during your ironman training! and thank you for such encouragement! xxoo
