The attention I get has been great. It has opened so many doors for me. It's nice that people are accepting beautiful women as athletes. It's encouraging to girls that muscles don't mean you can't be beautiful.

How's motherhood? It is absolutely wonderful. Oh, my gosh. It's truly indescribable and amazing.

I loved being on the field playing and teaching softball. I didn't like the fact that a camp had my name on it and I didn't know the logistics of what was going on. I wanted to make sure I was involved in a camp that did things right.

I'm living a dream. I hope in 10 years people will know me as a gold medalist.
