:heart:
I have been watching many of you for more than 6 years. You are the best and I cheer for you at every bar you beat. Thanks for the show, I only have three more meets until John (Akron) is over. You are a terrific group of athletes and are great to the moms that watch. Thanks for the fun. Carol

He has 3 more meets and we"ll see where he is. Years ago, I used to fix peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for John's team and his competitors. They are too big to take sandwiches but when I see them at meets, they remember. I admire everyone of you that work so hard to get over a bar. You are awesome. Mom

But there is something very special about a vaulter. I always cheer the competition bacause the goal is for everyone to get better. If I don't have flowers, I will let you know. Mom :star:

John's Mom, I hope that I will be able to meet you in Knoxville in a few weeks-- I'll be looking forward to that pb & j sandwich.

Scott, if you can get off the ceiling you'll have your sandwich in Knoxville. I am not hard to find. Johnny's mom.

There is no way we can repay her...she knows she is the best vault mom ever, we wouldn't be where we are are today if it was not for her love and support. Thank you and have a very happy mothers day.

p.s.- i ate my fair share of the homemade sandwiches

Chris,

You have always been my hero. Thanks for the good words. Tomorrow I get to be in the cold like the year you were at State. You guys inspire me and I know that you have and will inspire many more. I guess I will have to take some sandwiches to Knoxville. Will you be there? Your friend, Carol

Awww man, my mom is so cool. Yeah she came up to our conference meet this weekend, and of course it was rainy and cold. Ehh whatever, it's like that every year. Nothing new. But anyways, I'm not retiring, but I only have two more collegiate meets possible. I have another year of school, so I'm gonna keep jumping with coach mitchell here at Akron for at least another year. We'll see what happens.
