We have been watching the Olympics. Gymnastics, swimming, diving, volleyball, basketball, fencing....etc. This week will be equestrian.
Our American athletes are so inspiring. Dara Torres, Michael Phelps, Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh, Nastia Luikin, and Shawn Johnson are among our favorites.
In an interview Michael Phelps was asked about reaching his goal of 8 Olympic Gold Medals in these games. His response was he worked hard and in his dreams he had done it. Dara Torres will tell her daughter "I guess I'll tell her don't put an age limit on your dreams."
We can learn so much from these athletes.
Michael Phelps: always believe you can reach your goals and dreams. It's a done deal.
Dara Torres: never think you are too old or it's too late to reach your dreams.
I'm so glad we have been watching the Olympics as a family. The girls see how hard these athletes work to reach there goals and because of their hard work have received Gold, Silver, and Bronze Medals at the Olympics.
They now, of course, want to swim, dive, do gymnastics and play volleyball. They already want to ride horses. They will for sure after watching equestrian events on Thursday.
