Olympic Moment

Alright . . . well maybe not quite Olympic, but still. To me, and the other parents in that gym, it may as well have been. It was simply the last class of the gymnastics session and EVERY child was given a medal. Yeah,so? The kids thought little really of the medallion hanging on them, and they were all actually pretty quick to remove it. However, we the parents of these 3 and 4 year old mini-gymnasts behaved as though it truly was an Olympic medal moment. Cameras snapping, videos recording, and mouths hootin' and hollerin' . . . we were a sight to behold. We all had a good chuckle over our emotional and zealous responses to ours kids performing one little trick, taking the "podium" and receiving their "gold".

Little Miss cared much more about the cheering than the medal.

A few kiddos were shy or even scared in their moment. Little Miss could have remained on that podium in the "ta-da" pose for quite awhile!

My girlie in action!

Handstand - Little Missy's favorite (legs were straight at one point despite what the picture shows).

A proud girl . . . and a more proud Mama!
