Mary-Ann has been going to gymnastics for the past 2 1/2 months. Saturday, June 19, 2010, was her very first gym show! It was an adventure. The day before she had no nap because we were enjoying the day at the beach and she was exhausted! We had to wake her up to get ready, she wasn't cooperating, and the entire way to Plymouth she complained she was tired. When we arrived the gym had its usual smell of foot cheese and there were at least 30 twinkling star gymnasts running around, as well as, older children.
The topper was it was at least 90 degrees and every parent, grandparent, aunt and uncle were there supporting there gymnast!
Mary-Ann, our fearless leader, and far from shy child, was so scared to go out on the floor. I had to bring her out there and wait for her gym coach, Randi, to come and take her from me. I was so nervous she was going to cry or have stage freight. As always, Mary-Ann proved me wrong and was herself...trying to take off her shirt, grabbing herself, picking her noise, and was far from acting "lady" like!
It was very cute and a great show! At the end they called each gymnast onto the floor and presented them with a trophy! She had a great time and soaked up all the attention!
