IFWT_Nyla_Miller

The Olympics always have a way of bringing out the spirit of the games in people. For all the medal winners and accomplishments, there are always stories of goodwill between people or something inspiring and that’s what we have here. Young six year old Nyla Miller was so inspired by what she saw from Simone Biles and Gabby Douglas that she wanted the girls to know. Living in Atlanta, Nyla and her father got the camera out and went to work. The result was this adorable video.

“She name-dropped those two ladies, Simone and Gabby,” Nyla’s mother, Jessica Miller, told ABC News’ Katie Kindelan. “She said something along the lines of, ‘I love Gabby and Simone too.’ …

“She was so engrossed, saying, ‘She’s brown like me. She’s little like me. She has muscles like me.’ And needless to say, she was amazed at her athletic ability.”

These are the things I love about the Olympics. Who knows, Nyla may be the one competing one day and this video would’ve been the start of her career.
