Doing the girls' hair a little different one morning, Cora noticed and was very excited. She said, " Mom, you did our hair like the girl who was too tired." It took me a little bit to realize what she meant. But then I did.
Yes, Nastia Liukin, I am sorry that you are known to my daughter as "the girl who was too tired." As we watched the olympic trials, I tried to explain to her why you fell during your bars routine. I thought a simple explanation that you were tired and not ready for the trials was good. Unfortunately, that is what my four-year old daughter remembers about you. My apologies as you are much more than just a girl whom was too tired. You are an olympic champion.
