Beijing 2008 or Bust




Last Saturday, Noa had her first of 6 swim lessons in preparation for her 2008 Summer Olympic Games debut. Coach Dad was relentless in his quest to get Noa Sloan's lap time fast enough to qualify for the 400m individual medley. Noa, however, flat out refused to swim even one lap, and intensely resisted her usual warm up of blowing bubbles and playing with the rubber ducky. With teardrops flowing from her face into the pool water, Noa definitely did not bring her A-Game.

Some say it was her choice of swimwear; a pink heart bikini hardly screams I'm Olympic Material. Others blame her rookie swimmer status. Was it too soon to graduate from the kitchen sink to a 50 foot pool?

Ever the believer, Dad is NOT throwing in the towel just yet. Disappointed in Mom, who will hardly dip a toe in the water, Dad is determined to make a tadpole out of someone in the Benerofe Family!
