Special Mom’s blog

I am surprised I haven’t written to this prompt. I used to love watching Olympics when I was a girl. 1984 Olympics I remember watching with my little brother. He was crazy talking about Carl Lewis. When Ben Johnson was ripped off his medal in 1988 because of doping that was a big deal for my brother. I hope we both would be able to see some events live, Olympics 2028. It would be a memorable event. If that happens I will blog here!

There is really a rush in these short distance races. Sometimes you win by a nose 😀!

Then there was a marathon speech by a senator this week! He stood up straight for 25 hours to break a record without eating, sitting, drinking or taking a bathroom break. That is what I call perseverance. I think once you are half way through people start encouraging you and that really boosts you up. Anyhow this is not anything political but I really was curious about this news article!
