Gymnastics

So, today was the last class of Katie's 7 week developmental gymnastics class. We told her that it was the last one, and she was sad, but otherwise okay with it. We also told her that at some point down the road we'd consider signing her up for another class, but that for now she had swimming to look forward to in a few weeks. That was all before class started.

But then!! Then, my sweet little, trouble making, mischevious little monkey went in to class and for the first time actualy participated for the whole class. She usually avoids stretching like it's the plague, but today she went at it with gusto, and it was great. As daddy and I stood there, watching her stretch, then tumble and do kart wheels, and walk on the balance beam and hang from the rings and bars, we decided that we just couldn't end the classes.

So, as a surprise to our sweet little girl, she will continue to go to gymastics. She has no idea, and won't find out until Friday when I pack her and her leotard in to the car and tell her we're going grocery shoping, but instead I'll take her back to gymnastics. I can just imagine the look on her face and the excitement in her little voice.

Oh the fun I will have for the next couple of days!!!
