Again...another thwarted talent

Today I'm going to a parent meeting for "A Finals" swimmers. This means that my daughter is one of the best swimmers in her age group. She's on the younger side, so this is quite a feat. People often marvel at her natural talent, and assume that John or I must have been swimmers. This is a sore spot for me because I have no idea what talents I could have had since none were ever developed. I have to assume that I am the source of the talent since John was not a swimmer, but I'll never know because I am convinced that my parents only took me to swimming lessons because my father thought swimming would be a useful skill for the apocalypse.
