My little gymnast

Mikayla has been taking gymnastics this summer. At the end of each session, they let the parents come in and watch. Mikayla was so excited to have Gavin and I come watch her. The funniest thing was sitting there watching her trying to be still and wait her turn at each station. She was sitting on her spot, but was just so wiggly and jittery. She looked like she was truly about to pop. It made me think of a comment she made this last Sunday. On the way home from church, she asked me if she had a big spirit or a little spirit. I promptly replied that she had a very big spirit (that is constantly trying to bust out of her little body). Watching her wriggle around during class made me think of that "big spirit."

She is a doll! My kids have very 'big spirits' too.

She is so cute.......with a huge spirit for such a little body. She is a bright spot in Nana's world!

I've watched M's summersault 3 times now and it gets cuter everytime I watch it! I love how she totally passes up the cones and goes straight for the summersault!
