the lim pik spirit

what polly likes the most about the lim pix is seeing what she calls the lim pik spirit. it's more important than winning a medal. that's when you keep going even if you're hurt or tired or scared or if you fall down. polly sees the lim pik spirit around her all the time. like when mama teaches a yoga class even though her knee hurts. or when papa works hard all nite but still gets up early on saturdays so he can take polly to the park to see the horses.

polly doesn't think she has the lim pik spirit though. when she's tired she gets cranky & wants to sleep. or if she's jump roping or ice skating & she get's tired, she'll just sit down! there's no sitting at the lim pix.

unless you're on a bobsled.
