Her story is interesting. 3rd Olympic, first medal. She had retired, had two children, pregnant with her third, when she miscarried. Her husband worried about her and insisted she try again. He felt she needed it to heal. Looks like she healed and finally medaled. Gotta love her spunk.

We loved watching that, too. Her climbing over the rails to hug hubby and babies was priceless. I also enjoyed watching her entire family cheer the other American racer, just as enthusiastically as they’d cheered for Nicole. What a treat to see her win and to see her family enjoying every second of it with her :)

Amazing what one can accomplish when they don’t waste their life propping up liberal delusions. Sounds like she earned every bit of her success.

I enjoyed watching the US hockey team beat Russia today. The game remained tied 2-2 after the 4 minute overtime period so they had a shoot off. It was a real exciting finish.
