Briana is absolutely loving gymnastics. When I tell her we are going to gymnastics and that we are going to see Miss Jennifer, she starts yelling "yay!" We are currently working on "waiting our turn." Briana is still having problems with this issue, but she is improving. She wants to jump from apparatus to apparatus at her own pace and doesn't like when one of her classmates is taking too long. I am hoping as the weeks go by, she will learn the art of patience.On Friday, Miss Jennifer blew bubbles and let the kids run around for a few minutes. Some kids were laughing and trying to pop the bubbles. Some just stood and watched. This was my kid...
Yes, she likes bubbles. I swear, Briana has the enthusiasm of 100 kids. She was jumping, laughing and yelling "bubbles" like she had never seen bubbles before. Yes, she has a zest for life like no other. It's pretty dang funny.
Speaking of improving, I cannot believe how good she is getting at gymnastics. She can do somersaults by herself now and can hold on to a high bar and stick her legs in the air. She balances very well on the balance beam (while holding my hand) and can climb a ladder and miniature rock climbing wall with complete ease (no help). It is really amazing to watch.
I am so happy that Briana enjoys her time in gymnastics class. And I get about a 45 minute workout myself. :)
9 Kind Words:
Way to go Briana....sounds like you might have a future gymnast on your hands!
It is a wonderful sport and teaches the kids great discipline....I was cracking up about her running from apparatus to apparatus and not waiting her turn....I think Sarah would be doing the same thing!
Enjoy your weekend!
PS...HOORAY for Notre Dame, that was a great game!!

My girls always took gymnastics and ended up competing at a pretty high level. It is great discipline that spills over into all areas of life. Their work ethic is amazing!!! I am so happy Briana loves it so much! She is hilarious!!!
Naomi had her first gymnastics class today and she totally loved it! She also went nuts for the bubbles!!
Love to hear that she is enjoying her gymnastics!
Hahahaha... had to crack up over the bubble thing... hehehe
I know about the waiting patiently, or rather not waiting patiently for your turn. Eriks when he catches the bug that something's awesome and fun, he wants to do it over and over again.
As for gymnastics, we're looking at enrolling Eriks in gymnastics once we get to GA on top of the karate he does. He's got this knack of learning things quickly and not only that, but being good at it too!
