learning that it really isn't about me...and maybe that defeats the purpose of this.

Olympics

So, the olympics have started and you know... it's only every 4 years. I think our family comes together. I like it, we gather in the living room to watch Shaun White and Lindsey Vonn and the weird Johnny Weir. It's fun.

You know, watching the opening ceremonies was really cool. Think about it, they get to call themselves Olympic Athletes. How incredible is that? Not that many people get to do so. 
The sad thing is... I would love to compete in the Olympics. But, as soon as I realize this I'm almost fifteen. I should be at a training camp already. 

And well, you see.. I'm not. My chance to say "Mommy, I'm going to win a gold medal." It came and went 10 years ago.
