the olympics...
last night my boys refused to go to bed
it was an exhausting fight
we battled
they won
I let them settle in and watch some of the olympics
as I was tired of running the stairs at a marathon distance chasing them back into bed
when the Chinese gymnasts took the center stage my older son Dean marveled a the feeling a child must go through to be competing in the Olympics at such a young age
I asked how old he thought the competitor was
he said 13?... I told him that the competitors must all be 16
then told him that many people think the Chinese are cheating by not following these guidelines
