It really makes you think about the times that you complain about your occasional shoulder pain.

You should have a gold medal around your neck by now.

You're such a slacker.

Francesca Lola Brigida and her two-year-old son, Tomasa.

She is away from this kid 250 days a year.

And then there he was.

And, you know, like as a mom, I can't even imagine what it would do for me for my kid to see me excel at my thing.

So the way that the husband and the kid were jumping up and down like lunatic, it was like a gonzo moment.

I loved Ilya coming off the ice after that really hard moment with such composure and using the words grateful.

And I love the insane arguments I've been getting into with my husband over, like, all the equipment stuff.

Like, penis gate.

And somebody had to bring it up.

But also about, like, you know, the brooms they use and curling and whether a blue suit moves you faster than a red suit.

Like, all that kind of seeming minutia to a layperson has been kind of fun to engage in.

I'm the most decorated female free skier in history.

I think that's an answer in and of itself.

You know, I'm sort of fascinated by behavioral psychology, and I feel like this is the golden age of the layperson understanding mental health.

And I feel like that's very evident in this games.

I repeatedly have this sensation of like, oh, that kid, these young, young people is either balanced or striving for balance in a way that you didn't hear 20 years ago.

I mean, every maternal bone in my body just wanted to sweep him up in my arms.
