We switched Piper's gymnastics from Tuesday to Thursday so she'd be surrounded by other kids instead of being the only one in her class. I was starting to get paranoid when the last kid left the class the week after they had a disagreement over a toy and then ran into each other leaving the poor little girl in tears. In all seriousness, the little girl joined her sister's class so their Grandma didn't have to sit through 2 classes in one day with a 2 hour break in between.
Ok, on to today's class - there were 6 kids in her class. Piper was the 1st one there - (I know - me early to something???) and she got more and more excited as the kids started arriving. She went right in and listened to Miss Jessica (her teacher) and followed directions to a T. I was so amazed at her progress, since I left during the last two classes to minimize distracting her I haven't seen everything she has done. She stayed with the group, did each activity, I was really proud of her. She even shared and waited her turn. I thought it was really cute, they had to partner up at one point and she grabbed the little boy next to her and put her arms on his shoulders and made him be her partner. Oh man, she's not shy (yet). What I was really impressed with is that they did backwards somersaults and while she needed help, she did it with enthusiasm. Before she was hesitant to do forward ones in class. It was really fun, I really wish I had my camera.
