Our Little Shawn Johnson

Maya started gymnastics last night. Her class age group is 3-6 years but she did really well. I was given the wrong date of the first class so she missed last week's session and was able to make it up last night. TWO HOURS of gymnastics for a 3 year old is a long time but she did great. They stretched, did sommersaults, jumped on the air-blown trampoline, walked on the high balance beam and touched their toes to the uneven bars. I was so proud of her. She is not used to taking instructions from teachers but she did pretty good - aside from being tempted to move on to the next activity before the rest of the group. She made it through the two hours and we treated her with a nice healthy PIZZA dinner afterwards (wink).

(Unfortunately, the lighting made it hard to get good pictures. We managed to get some good video footage though!)
