Today was Aleisha's first day of tumbling class and she had a really good time. At first they had her name tag wrong so she ended up in the advanced class. The instructor had her doing back bends, cartwheels and tons of other stuff she had no idea how to do. She finally started crying and he sent her out. After talking with the girls at the front desk we realized they had written her name tag wrong and she was in an advanced class.
Anyhow, once she was in the beginning tumblers class she loved it. She was walking the balance beam, jumping on trampolines, crawling through tunnels and doing flips. I'm so excited that we found something she loves!
I really think it's going to be something that pulls her out of her shell. She is very shy most of the time, even around people she knows. I overheard a lady saying that having her daughter there totally changed her shy personality and made her a very bold little girl. Hopefully it will be the same for Aleisha.
The end of the class was so cute to watch. They did the hokie pokie and got purple TERRIFIC stamps on both hands and feet. She was so excited afterwards that she told me everything they did, as if I hadn't been watching. LOL!
My Cami loved gymnastics...this summer I am putting both girls into it. I think Cari will love it as well.
ReplyDeleteSchool seemed to pull Cami out of her shell...now we can never change schools because she found her footing there.
Kricie, what a terrific idea. I loved gymnastics when I was a kid. She looks so cute!
