This short video captures the amazing moment of joy when my daughter won first place all around in the Northern California gymnastics championship. I wasn't quick enough with my camera, but you can hear the announcer say "...level champions. Gymnasts please salute!" That's Wasabi Girl there in the number 1 spot with the enormous smile. She's holding a pillowcase they gave her as part of her award, that says "Dream Big."
Throughout the competition season, the first place all-around medal has eluded her. It's been her single goal. She couldn't have picked a better meet to win it. I'm so proud I could burst.
Having a champion in the family makes my Monday. To see more Monday makers, visit Cheryl at Twinfatuation.
