Faith competed in her first gymnastics competition. She had so much fun. Despite her falls, she made it through all her routines not forgetting to do anything. The nice thing about her first competition season as a level 3 is that no scores are posted. Although the girls eventually learn that they want all blues for no falls and no help from their coaches, this weekend's meet was the perfect start to learning what competition is all about. It was a mother's dream come true to see her little girl doing what she did when she was a little girl. Faith will get better as the year goes on but when it is all said and done she is thankful for whatever color ribbon she gets and whatever trophy or medal is given to her. Tonight her medal hangs above her bed. I'm not sure where the others will be hung but we will find a spot. Having a little gymnast in the house is hard work with her flipping every where but I hear that what you did to your parents will come back to you. I was the flipper in the house and wherever I went.
Toddler. Preschooler. Prekindergartener. Kindergartener. And now a first grader. Life moves forward.
