I want to thank all of you for your best wishes and thoughts this holiday season. They are very much appreciated.
What a swimmers letter to Santa might look like.
Dear Santa,
I would like to get off to a great start in 2023 and will need a few things
to help me so if you could fill my stocking with any of the items below I would be very grateful. Hopefully you and your elves will have the correct tools laying around the North Pole to help me in my journey.

First off I will need a positive attitude going into the new year. With school, swimming and life all coming at me I know I will have to keep a positive attitude especially when things get tough and things don't necessarily go my way.
Next there will be times in the coming year when I will need an extra shot of motivation. I like to work hard to reach my dreams and goals but times do arise when I am not motivated and allow those times to affect my work habits. When those times arise I will need that extra kick to get started because I know that once I start I'll be okay and will work hard.
I want to ask that my swim group/buddies all find a way to get along. They are my second family and 
while I understand that there will be drama it's at those times it is important that we come together as a family find some patience and as the song goes "Let it go! Let it go!" This will allow us to train and help each other towards our dreams and goals.

This year I would like to see some fast times. I know that fast times aren't always possible and in those moments all I'm asking is a good competitive race with my opponents and when the big meets arrive on my schedule just the opportunity to be in the best possible position to achieve a personal best.
My coach has been working hard on our UWDK to give us an advantage off our walls in our races. Give me the confidence to understand that it may be hard and uncomfortable but if I continue to work hard my efforts will show up on race day.
Santa all of these things will help as I continue to swim and race this year but if you could squeeze one more item in your bag it would be neat to have some great finishes in 2023.
Hope all of you and your family have Joyful Holiday Season.
