We were so happy that Nonie and Jack were visiting for Sylvie's "Show Day" in gymnastics. I'm so proud of how hard she tries and how eager she is to participate in the show.
She loved having us all in the gym with her. Usually I watch through the large window, and although she can see me, it's completely different having me in the room with her. Nonie and Jack were an excellent bonus. She was grinning the whole time while doing warmups with the noodles:
She memorized her floor routine and did such a great job! There were several different elements - monkey jumps, donkey kicks, forward and backward rolls - and she remembered them all. Here her teacher is assisting with a backward roll.
And here she's preparing for a forward roll.
She made it completely across the high, narrow balance beam without any assistance! (See Nonie and Jack watching intently?)
And the leaped off without any hesitation!
Then on the low beam she decided to end with an arabesque!
This class has really helped her gain confidence - these are things she wouldn't even consider 6 months ago.
Tada!! I'm so proud of our girl.

Laney took gymnastics at that same age. It's great for them! Love to see Sylvie's cute pointed toes on the bars.... nice form!
