The Power of ONE/WON!!







Heath swam in the ALLSTAR swimming meet this past weekend. You have to have a qualifying time to participate in the meet. He qualified in backstroke and fly, but got disqualified in fly, so it was ONE event for him. This was his first year to qualify. We debated about even going all the way over there with the whole family for one event. That Heath really wanted to, so we were off. He was seated 27th, out of 80 swimmers, so no expectations really for me. He swam the fastest 7/8 time by more that a second. He dropped 4 seconds. It was tryly amazing, a goose bump moment for Sonny and Me. Everyone went wild!!! Talk about the underdog!!

Never again will be underestimate the power of ONE/WON!!!!!

Congratulations Heathy Jackson!!!!

Heath - that is so amazing!!!! Maybe when you come to Alaska someday you could teach us how to swim. We can all do a pretty mean Doggy Paddle. ;)
