A little less then a year ago Ava started going to a gymnastics class. It was a mommy and me class (daddy and me while I was pregnant) one day a week and we practiced basic positions on the mats, bars and trampoline. I can still remember that first day we went, Ava was all over the place. She had a hard time listening and concentrating on what the coach wanted and all too often she was too intimidated to try them. The only thing she has consistently loved since the beginning is the rings.
She has come a long way from that first class and it is such an amazing feeling to see how proud she is of her accomplishments. It used to be "mommy help me" and now its "mommy go away I can do it by myself."
Today we graduated from Baby Bears and tomorrow we join the Mini Monkeys. We will be sad to no longer have Coach Miles as Ava's coach but we are so excited to watch her talents grow.
