State Champion

I was never much for competition.
So, while others in school would fight to be first at most everything, I could not have cared less.
But, I loved running and when I broke the men's national record at 13 in Germany, I was stunned.

Of course a few months later an adult set a new one!

Saturday, my oldest grand-daughter did win something:
State champion in Cheer Leading!
We are all stunned.

She is one of the nerds at her school - straight A's!
And she put up quite a fight to even join the cheer leading squad.
That would be with the coach and counselors....
Because she was - 'too smart to be a cheer leader'!
And now she is the State Champion!
At 12 years old ....

Yeah be interesting to see where this leads.

So, I took her to Olive Garden after the win.
As we were walking in, still in her outfit, a lady ran up to her and said,
"You know, you really rocked the house this morning!"
Grand-daughter was immensely pleased,
And I have no clue what that lady meant!

Yeah, I no speak this this language well .....
