Just a proud Daddy

My daughter has placed first all around in 2 of her 4 gymnastics meets so far this year. The 20 hours a week working out has payed off for her. She is still pulling a 3.8 GPA her freshman year.

Congrats, gymnastics requires such commitment, by both the athlete and the family supporting them, for any hope of success. I have no doubt she is a very impressive young lady.

In her youth, my wife was a state champ in gymnastics(vault) and mixed doubles tennis. I dated a gal who won a state championship in Floor Ex. Serious dedication, you just have to respect it.

Yes, it takes a great deal of dedication to stick with the workouts. Her Mom did it for 12 years and actually coached her for a while. They are traveling to Phoenix in 2 weeks for another meet. She wants to do this in college also. Oh, the best part is NO time for a boyfriend !!
