Meg won a silver medal at a swimming gala today!
I was about to launch into a rant about filling in forms just to be able to take a photo of my own daughter in the swimming pool, but then remembered I did all that last year.
In fact I could repeat last year’s post almost word for word, so for anyone interested, click here to read it (Medal Won at the Swimming Gala) and I’ll just stick up a photo of my wee lass and her extremely proud father.

CONGRATULATIONS!!! that's at the core of it all...family and friends...you are a fortunate man, sir! i salute you!
ReplyDeleteWonderful, just wonderful.

ReplyDeleteWay to go, Meg! That is fantastic. You both look so happy. What a proud day and what a big accomplishment. I LOVE the photo.

ReplyDeleteAnd you didn't need to fill the forms because you had last time? I think I remember that post, actually.

ReplyDeleteWell i can't swim a lick so this is very impressive. I love Meg's smile. Very nice.

ReplyDeleteKim,
Your going to need to build or buy a trophy case for the house soon.
Ahhh, that is a great photo!
ReplyDeleteBanzai to Meg, and omedeto, too. (Words of congratulations...)
And while I'm at it, you and Maggie ought to pat yourselves on the back too, because whenever a kid gets a medal, however talented that kid is, the Mom and Dad deserve a helluva a lot of the credit (oops, here comes my daughter, better hurry up and post this before she sees it!!)
I saw your post about your daughter. I am a New York Times bestselling author working on a new book about father-daughter relationships and thought you might want to contribute. Please visit my page for details about submitting stories for Daddy's Little Girl.
