for today's fans


So, as mother of the year (again), I told Sophie's fan club at today's meet that she was the girl in Lane #2.  Actually, when I got to the spot where I took the video, I figured out that she was, in fact, the girl in Lane #5 (the far lane).  I was just too far from the fans to let them know at that point. They all (and the strangers heard in the video) cheered for the girl in Lane #2, ironically named "Sophia" (just to add to the confusion).  So, in case you were at the meet, and in case you believed me when I thought I could identify my own child...(dressed eerily like 67 other tall, skinny 11 year olds), here is your chance to watch Sophie, the girl in Lane #5 (the one I like to refer to as the child I birthed...and would never mix up with another woman's child...and who placed FIRST in the 25 meter freestyle). 
Go Sophieeeeee...Lane 5!!!   : )
