Homecoming For Silver-Medal Mom

Oldest Olympic Swimming Medalist Dara Torres Returns Home
Dara Torres reunited this morning with her two-and-a-half-year-old daughter Tessa.

They'd been separated for seven weeks as Torres trained for the Beijing Games, in which she won three silver medals.

"For me, my most important place is home and being with my daughter, and, um, I could not get here soon enough," she said.

Dropping off her daughter for her very first day of pre-school, Torres was cheered by the teachers. And she showed off her medals at her home aquatics center.

And then, it was actually back to training.
