Blog Prompt – Today is the first day of the Olympics in China. What is your favorite and least favorite event in the Olympics?
I really like to watch the gymnastics competition because I think it takes so much strength and self discipline (both of which I have so little of). I am always so amazed how young they are and what abilities they have because they always look so graceful (yes even the men!). When I was in high school, we were required to some some gymnastics and I was pretty awful. A somersault was about the best thing I can do and since I had very little muscles in my arms, pole vaulting and parallel bars were pretty embarrassing. I could walk across the balance beam and sometimes turn around and walk back. Now that you can picture my gymnastic ability, I will leave you with that hilarious picture in your mind and let you return to your daily life!

Gymnastics is my favorite event to watch. I do like swimming and soccer, too. This is the first olympics my son has seen. He is really getting into it.
