"She's a firecracker"

I know I posted about Olympic champion Colorado teenager Mikaela Shiffrin already, but this story by John Meyer is a must read.
They were delighted there to see NBC video of the celebration at her grandmother's house in Massachusetts at the moment she won. Shiffrin's grandmother is 92 years old.

"They all jumped up and were screaming, and I think she jumped higher than anyone else," Shiffrin said. "Like, 'Nana, where did you get that power in your legs? Give me some of that, what have you been doing?' She's a firecracker."
