I'm st...That's something to be proud of :)<br /><br />I'm still a bit intimidated by diving boards, and the most I can do is a cannonball (sadly, I can't dive). The problem doesn't lie in the swimming...the problem lies in the fact that I am near phobic of heights. I will go on roller coasters (and nearly pass out if I look down). I will go on balconies (and nearly pass out if I look down). I think you see the pattern. Then I panic and step away and I feel like I can't breathe. <br /><br />I can't do more than the regular diving board- I've tried the second level high dive, and it scares the shit out of me. Panic attack. (I have panic disorder, so this isn't a surprise). St. Peters, Missouri has an excellent facility that has Olympic diving trials on occasion, so they have all the levels of diving boards, but they only open the lower two to the public. I'll stick to jumping off a regular diving board, or just the side of the pool, since I can't dive anyway.<br /><br />Proud of your daughter. Keep encouraging her! I think you have a gem of a daughter ;) I want to meet her and give her a hug. <br /><br />~Ashley~<br /><a href="http://perpetuallyashley.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">* Perpetually Me *</a>♥α§ђ£ε¥™♥https://www.blogger.com/profile/05769357580349768079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910185897876102936.post-41778874509427539622011-07-29T02:00:51.506-06:002011-07-29T02:00:51.506-06:00brave girl! thats the way to do it.brave girl! thats the way to do it.MaryRChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05885722336155612196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910185897876102936.post-55566208173413622402011-07-28T22:20:11.215-06:002011-07-28T22:20:11.215-06:00Wow, what a brave little girl!Wow, what a brave little girl!Rach (DonutsMama)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14029074046922966097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910185897876102936.post-66677222327328249952011-07-28T22:15:31.571-06:002011-07-28T22:15:31.571-06:00get it Natalie! be proud momma!get it Natalie! be proud momma!stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11867367009753052541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910185897876102936.post-72171965559755942692011-07-28T21:19:35.718-06:002011-07-28T21:19:35.718-06:00That is an awesome play by play!
