Future Olympians

I was watching the Olympics the other night, and was really excited because track and field was finally on. I was watching the guys throwing shot put, and thinking how they were build a lot like Jericho. (We had just been to his check-up at the doctor, and discovered he is in the 98 percentile for his weight, and is off the chart for his length. He's pretty much huge.) This train of thought got me to thinking, if my kids were athletes based on their personalities/body types what sport would they be in? (Thanks, Google, for the pics. Since these are obviously not really my kids.)

Obviously this would be Jericho. Enough said. Then we have Merrick. I decided high dive seemed appropriate. They are generally smaller built and wiry, and are always seen running around in their underwear (speedos) and jumping off tall objects. Merrick to the letter.

Tirzah, I wasn't so sure. But then I remembered hearing a bit on gymnasts, and how the female gymnasts are notorious drama queens. Lots of emotion...tough as they may be...but they can still put on the waterworks and throw a good fit. Yes, that would be Tirzah.

I'm not sure my kids will ever actually be olympians, but I'm as proud of them as Michael Phelps mama either way. ;)
