Some more of the Olympic commentary

Turn on the TV so they would eat dinner...and someone chimes in whoa USA is really winning...Men's basketball that is...
Here we go again...Braedyn is naming off the players on the USA basketball team and some I haven't even heard of! "Kevin Durant is sitting next to LeBron James", he says....(I'm not a NBA fan) and then Cooper chimed in trying to say Mike Krzyzewski (which was a mouthful!:) and there's that guy who played for Kentucky, Anthony Davis...The kids know their sports! Then Women's soccer came on after that. Wow, I never knew how brutal that can be. In a matter of 15 minutes four women got hurt and one really hurt but then went back in! It was funny when Braedyn said about a girl he's friends with, "how does she do that, she must be tough!" That was a great game and I couldn't get them up to bed until it was over...USA won!
They are sponges...
I was watching sycnchro swimming with Jordan and said, "I wonder how they do that" and Jordan said, "they executed it!"  hmmm where did he get that from...
Instead of watching their Disney channel they would rather watch the Olympics! Yes, no fighting over TV shows and the remote for awhile!
It's great for them too since they both are studying the Olympics in Social Studies! Their teacher will ask them questions about different events that have been on and they also study the countries. Cooper actually taught me something about the China flag and what it stands for. I like the teaching opportunities that come up during watching it as well. Tonight Braedyn said, "I know her that's Abby Wambauch we talked about her at school". So I asked what they talked about and he told me that when she was a little girl, she loved soccer and she never gave up. Ah ha~ "See what I tell you, don't give up! See if you work really hard and don't give up, see all the great things that can happen. She is playing for Team USA in the Olympics!" He liked that!
I think we might go thru Olympic withdrawal around here when it is all over!
