My Little Gymnast

Anna is getting so much stronger, thanks to gymnastics.  She is accomplishing things so much better in class and is not timid about trying new stunts.  In fact, after being at a friend’s house one day, her friend’s mom told me that her husband said he would like to have Anna come over to their house more often to help their daughter get a little braver.  It comes with its disadvantages, though…She demonstarted to Cody a couple weeks ago how to flip backwards off the swing in our backyard.  Cody wanted to try it so badly, so he got in position.  Hesitating, he asked, “What will happen?”  Anna replied matter-of-fact, “You’ll land on your feet!”  Well, Cody landed on his head instead and declared he would never try that again!
