I was a swimmer and spring board diver MANY years ago in high school. I used to sometimes practice where Greg Louganis did, under the coach of Dr. Sammy Lee. It was fascinating to watch him dive. Like ballet in the air! Truly!!! Love that orange ball of goodness...and how lucky to be the recipient of that magazine!!!!<br />Hugs,<br />KrisKrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15578853096888320012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787570018101441310.post-32482398958406844402012-03-19T11:11:39.435-04:002012-03-19T11:11:39.435-04:00So sorry to hear that news Meredith.

I hope the x-rays turn out okay, and it is nothing too serious to keep your son from his practice and competing. How nice to have received the crochet book from a blogger friend. The Japanese books are always filled with such beautiful things, I know because I have 2-3 already and just splurged on Ebay and bought 6 more this past week. Even if you can't read a word in the books, they use diagrams of the patterns. <br />Susanne :)Susanne Tyreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04271812578614840958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787570018101441310.post-14960169420220608742012-03-19T07:05:04.640-04:002012-03-19T07:05:04.640-04:00Oh Meredith, what a weekend.

And when one who is addicted to running at least 10 miles a day has a foot injury...ain't nobody happy! (I'm speaking of my daughter.) She certainly doesn't compete as your son does, but this has been a mentally challenging situation for her - and there are days that she is just wound tight over it! It's so hard to watch our children languish! Hugs, my friend. Will keep you all in my prayers!
