Nothing Beats Winning!...

Surprise, surprise! Chloe has won her first GOLD medal in Optimist Sailing. None of us expected it. Lynette and I were thinking about staying for the prize giving for the Sakae Noss Competition. Why... we thought Chloe would be looking all the prize winners and get motivated to try to win the next time. But... Chloe got bored waiting so we packed up and went home. Upon driving into our carpark, my mobile rang and Adrian told us that Chloe won GOLD for the Silver fleet. We rushed back to the National Sailing Centre within 10 minutes for Chloe to collect her first GOLD medal. For me, it was a great and proud moment. Needless to say, Lynette shed a few tears because she was so moved by her baby winning! For Chloe, she told me (later) that she felt very proud but yet very shy about the whole thing. With all those medals that I had won in school, I know one simple truth "Nothing beats winning!".
