Hi Village,

We've officially crossed the finish line. I am now sipping coffee, shopping online and reading the newspaper in my pajamas. I'm of course kidding although I do intend to teach myself to relax and sit still a little bit more (wink wink). Meanwhile, Allie is learning so much about running Fit4Mom Davis-Woodland and doing #allthethings. During this past month of 'onboarding', Allie's dedication and passion for this community has become so apparent. Her desire to soak up everything while also bringing her own 'flare' has been really special to watch. I am excited for her to be at the helm and can't wait to see what she has in store for you. She's a rockstar and so is her team so get ready!

Ladies, thank you for the last five years you gave me. Just by showing up, you helped make FIT4MOM Davis-Woodland the village that it is, one that is full of so many formed friendships and an immense amount of love and support. Jack, Matthew and Jody will forever remember attending Stroller Strides classes and all of the friendships they made, the bubbles they popped and the songs they sang; it has been a huge part of our family's life.

We've come so far in five years, starting from complete scratch to now reaching hundreds of moms. Some of that growth is luck (right place, right time), some of it is 'word of mom' (thank you!) and most of it is the heart and hustle of our team. Christina, Keli, Kristen and Maria have put hours upon hours into planning and teaching awesome classes, playgroup activities and other events, being active on behalf of Fit4Mom on social media and playing a huge role in all of the decisions we've made (scheduling, pricing, special events, fundraising, etc). I can't thank you girls enough.

My role might be much different moving forward but I'm still planning to attend classes and teach a few here and there :) At some point, I will probably need to downsize my minivan Fit4Mom decal and will try to convince Allie to go even bigger and wrap her minivan :)

See you in class soon!

xoxo

Emily
