Little Gymnast

Lauren has been taking some type of gym class before she could even walk. We're not especially eager for her to become an actual gymnast, but love the confidence and strength she has developed while learning all of the skills. Last week she finished a session of her Mini Flips class, so I went with my mom to attend their "show." Each child performed their "routines" on the floor, balance beam and uneven bars. Lauren was definitely the youngest and least experienced in the class, but her exuberance more than made up for it.
