The girls are doing pretty gosh-darn well in swimming this summer (I am a proud mommy!). Every meet we watch them get better and better but they have never had to compete against each other...until last night. They were each competing in the 25 free and the 25 back...but at the same time. As a mom, I wasn't looking forward to that. At all. But...it ultimately turned out sooo well! Ellie won 1st in free (with Quincy a close 2nd) and Quincy won 1st in back (with Ellie a close 2nd). Someone was smiling on the Maley's last night!
The meet was against the Mallards (we are the Fins, as in shark fins) and we were encouraged to make posters to show our team spirit....I think we met the challenge! I have a feeling this poster-making-gig will be around for the Maleys for a long time. It was fun!
