Nadia Comaneci was a superstar in the late seventies was a winner of 5 gold medals and the first to be awarded a perfect score of 10 in an Olympic gymnastic event.
One of the greatest athletes of the 20th century and possibly the greatest gymnast of all time is expecting her first child.



Congratulations Nadia. I wish you the best within this world because you gave us the best of you. You still make us dream when we see your videos.
You deserve the most beautiful baby of the world, because you are the most tremendous women.
Be Happy, we love you…. we love you… we love you…..
Nadia, I still remember watching you and being so proud of you and of Romania. I am your age and when I was young people would ask what is Romanian? Then I would mention you and they would know. I was in gymnastics and when we moved that was the end of it. But I continue to love the sport and feel the excitement.
I have a 10 year old daughter who is now competing and loves it. She is pretty good. She has alot of ability and has strength on her side. Her best events are Vault and Bars. Our gym seems to focus more energy on the one or 2 that are pure natural talent and not building up ones that could be great with more hard work and encouragement. Haley Nicole ((my daughter) has the natural ability and scores low 9’s on the bars and vault consistently. But sometimes I think thatif her coaching was more encourging she would believe she can do just as well if not better than the ones who are perceived the best. She seems to slot heself as second tier because that is where the gym slots everyone except the 2 standouts - they are great girls too. (they are not in her age group)She actually has the highest all around in her age group at the gym. I actually had to point that out to her as she did not beleive it. Anyway, her state competition this weekend and she said “Mom, I’d really like to get a Banner this weekend”, so I told her it was completely possible she just had to focus and believe and do her best. I always tell her she has the following going for her, strength, ability, and Romanian blood! I tell her all that is left is to believe in herself as we do. If you want it you can acheive it.
If you ever have anytime to write to her with some encourgement, I would greatly appreciate that. She knows who you are very well, becuase when the girls talk about the greats of the past few years, I tell her about you and how you were my idol. Also, if you have any advice for me as a parent of a gymanst or what I should look for in a gym, that would be great too!
Maybe we will see you in Phila. at the trials in june!
Congratulations on your pregnancy. God bless
