Best Day Ever: When My 3 Yr Old Won A Gold Medal

Robert Esmie won so that's MY Gold Medal!
Olympians are great people.
They understand that while the effort, sacrifice, and athleticism is theirs in pursuit of Olympic glory, once they win that medal it belongs to the nation.
Oscar winners are often asked where they keep their golden boys. It’s usually in a bathroom, bookshelf, or at their mom’s house.
Ask an Olympic athlete winner where their medal is and they’ll likely pull it out of their pocket right then and there. It’s not pride that forces them to pack it around everywhere they go, it’s a sense of giving and sharing.
It’s that giving and sharing from Olympic athletes that let my son win a Gold Medal, at the age of 3.
