A dad was brought to tears as he witnessed his daughter’s flawless gymnastic performance to ‘Never Grow Up’ by Taylor Swift.
Gymnastics demands hard work, dedication, and a deep love for the sport. Each routine is the result of countless hours of training, and when a gymnast performs, they share a part of their story with the audience. This connection makes the sport even more special.
In a memorable finale, Abby Paulson, a senior at the University of Utah, scored her second perfect 10 in her college career. Her routine, set to Taylor Swift’s “Never Grow Up,” touched the hearts of many, especially her father’s. As a former Olympic wrestler, he was seen in the audience, wearing a red jacket, visibly moved by his daughter’s flawless routine.
Abby Paulson was named the 2024 Pac-12 Women’s Gymnastics Scholar-Athlete of the Year. She is a double major in Kinesiology and Political Science, boasting an impressive GPA of 3.966. She is on track to graduate at the end of the 2024 academic year.
This dad’s reaction to his daughter’s victory reminds us of the special bond that parents share with their children. From the moment of their child’s birth, parents cherish each moment of growth and stand by them through every low and high.
Let us remember to cherish and support each other, just as God cherishes and supports us through every moment of our lives. Our bonds with family are a reflection of God’s eternal love for us.
“Love one another deeply, from the heart.” – 1 Peter 1:22
