Last Class for the Little Gymnast
pamelamyers | April 7, 2017
Tonight was Sam’s last gymnastics class. And I mean – last. We are done with gymnastics. Sam really enjoyed it but she is not exactly an Olympian in the making. She has fun doing it, but she isn’t really committed to it, if you know what I mean. I am glad she had fun, but I can tell it’s not her passion. I am willing to let her try things because otherwise she’ll never figure out what she really wants to commit to, but there is a limit to how many lessons I will let her do when it is clear she is not totally into it.
We are going to take a break from classes because summer is coming and with vacations, and camp, and the pool, we have enough going on. The next time she wants to enroll in something, we are really hoping she will take some music lessons. For some reason, Sam seems really interested in learning to play guitar. I have no problem with that, although, piano would seem a more obvious choice. Anyway, tonight was her last class and they put on a show just like last time. Sam wanted her Grandmom to come, so of course, she did! When the show was over, all the gymnasts got a medal. Sam was glad it was not the same as last time!
