Piper started gymnastics through the local parks and rec department. Three of her classmates also signed up. I had been talking about signing her up for a class earlier this fall and kept saying I would do it after we moved. At the time, she seemed very excited. But after signing her up, she would continue to tell me that she would go "when I am bigger". I was nervous on how she would do, but I think having her friends there, in addition to Eddy being the one to bring her (I met them after work), made it go more smoothly. They took a picture before class started...
They were so fun to watch! Each of them were pretty nervous at the beginning, but then loosened up. They did some "tumbling" on the mats, jumped up on the horse, used the uneven bars, and walked on the balance beam. After class when I asked Piper what was her favorite part, she said "all of it". She stayed after class to work on her somersault, which for some reason she has decided is very cool to do with her legs up in the air!
