My New Hero

I LOVE the Olympics! Every night since August 8th, Lorin and I have found ourselves staying up way past our bed times so we could watch the exciting Olympic games. I have always loved the gymnastics and track events, but I had never really considered myself a big Swimming fan. Well, that has all changed. I don't know if it's all because of Michael Phelps, but I LOVE LOVE watching swimming now. This may sound super weird, but I almost feel like he's my son and I am so proud of him after each race. I always get teary-eyed and Lorin just looks at me like I'm a nut. Any who, I have thoroughly enjoyed watching Michael Phelps break so many records and win so many gold medals. I felt special watching history take place. Michael Phelps is such a stud and is my new hero!!

haha, I'm glad I"m not the only one who cries! Mikey looks at me like I'm a crazy lady- but they are so inspirational! I love it! And yes, Michael Phelps is insane!
