When Bailey was younger she loved gymnastics, and joined the gymnastics team. We quickly found how much gymnastics had changed from when I was kid and the sacrifice of 3 hour a night practices quickly changed Bailey's love of gymnastics. (She still enjoyed it, but not to that extent). Anyway, she joined a gymnastics program over here, and it has been so nice. It is truly all about the fun, and being that she is pretty self motivated, it has been quite good for her. A couple of weeks ago, the coach asked her if she would like to compete in a meet. Last weekend was the big day - compared to the meets she used to go to, this one was much more laid back. It reminded me of when I was younger - not quite on par with Olympic level gymnastics :-). She had a blast!

Go Bailey Go!!!!!! You looked so professional. Have bunches of fun. I am glad it is not sooooo competitive. That can much later in life.
I watched a movie not too long ago about the competition drive and the toll it took on a young girl. Stress comes naturally and should not be forced upon young people.
Happy Thanksgiving to you all in Germany. We all have much to be grateful for. Blessings are abundant, and we don't have to look to far for them. Take care. Lot of love to you all. gp
OOPS........ Several mistakes in my grammar. Did not proof my comment until after the fact. Ha. gp
Glad to see that Bailey is having "fun" while brushing up on her gymnastic skills - she probably showed the Germans a thing or two !!! Love you Bailey :)
