Proud parents… - 07.08.2008, 01:01 PM

My boy is going to the Junior Olympics & maybe my daughter (?)

The boy has qualified for his 4th appearance at the JO this year and will be swimming in 4 events, his best event is the 400m freestyle. He’s ranked 14th in the nation in his age group, and still thinks girls are yucky!.. . (aaaa youth)…

My daughter AKA “puplet” has been trying her best at the qualifiers and we should know by Friday if she’s going to make the team, she needs to takes three hundreds of a second off here time and she'll make the team, if she does shell be swimming the 100m butterfly at her first JO..

The race is being held early August wish us luck…


P.S.
Got to the love the kid factor…


Nothing!.. Hahahahaaa..

I haven't actually moved in yet. I'll be moving in on the 19th. I have met one neighbor though and she was really cool. She had a kid that's my daughter's age, so hopefully they'll get along well.

Thanks rootar.
Yes I’m hopping my boy will stick with it and save me hundreds of thousands of dollars in the years to come as well in the form of a scholarship..

Have a great one

Shaun.

Yes that's my boy in my avatar with his first quad, he was 10 in that picture, not much has changed in two years.


Thanks for the words of encouragement gentlemen; I'm going to let him read this post later tonight.

Thanks for your time and have a great one

That's great. I'll be watching this and hopefully just hopefully you can send me some autographed pictures of them . My daughter was invited for the Special Olympics, but I think she's too young.
