My 17-year-old hockey-obsessed grandson is pretty enamored with the Fab Five. He doesn't read my blog, so it's safe to say he's got a mad crush on them. They do what he does--devote themselves to their sport with all their might and means.
What a great example they are to their generation and to our world.
Beauty, strength, dedication, discipline, humility, sportsmanship, teamwork.
Amazing young women who have earned it all.

What a great team of young people from the good old USA. Your grandson must be a hard worker, he is back for a second year. Wish him all good!
I am so in love with watching the Olympics. And seeing the grace and beauty, hard work and determination from all these athletes is incredibly inspiring. And I love that Gabby is from our city! very cool indeed.
She is so very lovely and centered - I have been admiring her above all the others when we watch the gymnasts.
