Gold medal mom

I just read an article by Momtourage, an interview with Debbie Phelps, mother of Michael Phelps, 8 gold medal winner of this year's Olympics. I have enjoyed watching this woman so much during these games. It is so obvious how much she loved her son and wanted to see him succeed in this year's games (what mom wouldn't?). I am in awe of everything this woman is. Her life story as a working FT single mom of three, her "baby" boy having ADHD (Michael!). This article is a definite must read, check it out.

Come back and comment when you're done reading!
