I got to see DB swim for the first time this season. It was a short swim, but she was in the water, and it was beautiful! The meet was at Round Rock High School (I love that place) during the school day. My wonderful team covered me while I raced to RR (I even took the toll road, gasp) and back. I can't believe how much her form has changed since I saw her swim in June. She's like a different person, umm fish. She was much more confident and secure looking. Her "Big Sister" for swimming was watching near me, and was able to tell me that, yes, she really did swim well. Not just by being one of the first ones to finish in her heat (it was too close for my naked eyes to tell who was first and who was second), but also in her form. It's always nice to have someone who knows what they're talking about to confirm my belief that she's incredible. :-)
She also got to see a friend she's known since Wee School when she was three-years-old. The young man (who was a bit of a toot then) has turned into a very nice, very talented swimmer/diver, very handsome, guitar playing, Christian young man. With that long list of attributes he was interesting to many of the other girls on her team, and they suddenly needed to talk to DB when she began to visit with him. They made plans to try to get together to do something later. Maybe the boy who defended her from bullies when she was three and four will be back in her life... who knows?
