Dreams

To be six again....that would be nice.
Growing up I was obsessed with gymnastics...why I don't know. Probably just like any other girl's dreams about being a princess, a bride, or a ballerina, only I wanted to be a gymnast.
I would spend hours on the trampoline"receiving" perfect 10's for my performances having the crowd chant my name and whenever we were at the video store I would rent this movie...I loved it. I believe I even made my sister act out a scene with me once or twice...oh the dreams!

Anyhow this summer we signed the girls up for individual classes to keep them busy. Ainsley chose gymnastics.

So I have been having a blast, watching her twit and twirl.
(Notice the tongue sticking out in concentration)

And tumble and jump.

But mostly just be a little girl with dreams.

I always wanted to be a gymnast too, but was told I was much to long and lanky for such maneuvering!! I don't remember ever viewing that movie. Hmmm. Ainsley looks cute!
