I live for the summer games—to the point that I'm willing to put my entire life on hold to catch my favorite events. This week, I rescheduled drinks with friends around Simone Biles' gymnastics routines, so the fact that I even made it out of the house at all (and away from Gaby's Gold Medal cookies) is a small miracle. Sloan has—no surprise—settled right into G and my Rio-ruled routine, so maybe there's a "Team USA 2032" moment in her future. Wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. Have a good weekend!
