Olympic Unit Study

I am doing an Olympic unit study with the boys gearing up for London 2012 games. We are having a lot of fun learning about London and the royal family. Of course we are also learning a lot about the Olympic Games- modern and ancient. The torch lighting is on Friday and I had the boys choose an athlete or a person that they admire that they would want to honor with lighting the Olympic torch. They both in unison said MOM! And then they proceeded to tell me all the reasons why they admire me. I was in tears to say the least. Seriously, I am the luckiest mom ever!! Notice number 55 in the picture? That is my softball jersey number.
