The kids started gymnastics last week.  I cannot possibly express the extreme excitement that this caused.  We visited the gym the week before and they were practically counting down the minutes until Tuesdays arrival.  They were absolutely giddy!  Alexia's class is a gymnastics/dance combo and Diego's is a gymnastics/sports combo - talk about perfect!  AND they are at the same time!  After class last Tuesday, they both exclaimed, "Mommy, I didn't like gymnastics, I LOVED it!"  There was nonstop talk about gymnastics for the rest of the afternoon and the next day.  THEN...what happened?  Yep, dear Diego broke his arm.  So, that means no more gymnastics for him for a couple of months.  So today is Tuesday and Alexia had her class so we all went along.  Diego was awesome and never complained about being there and was excited to watch Alexia.  I reminded him that she has faithfully attended his soccer practices and games for 2 years now so it was a nice opportunity to show her support.  Alexia had a blast, of course!  Today they gave out medals and Diego's coach was so kind and included him in the "ceremony," even though he had only attended one class.  That gives you an idea of the impact that Diego made in that one class...yeah, his athletic ability doesn't stop at the soccer field! :)  And Alexia's coach was very impressed with her ability to almost hold a hand stand...she said she was built for gymnastics!
