The care and training of a young gymnast

I wish I had started this blog a while back. At that time I had no clue my youngest daughter would have the drive to be a gymnast. I just knew I couldn't contain her energy and needed an outlet for it's release. Hopefully this blog will be helpful to others that have a kid interested in gymnastics.

As I am a single disabled parent, money's been tight and this sport is not cheap. The commitment of financial resources, time and energy for the parent can be as demanding as the physical demands placed on the athelete.

This blog is created for all the unsung heroes behind that future medalist, the parent.

Eight days til Christmas

Today Emily was fitted for grips at the gym.  She promptly attempted to use them on the bars before I had a chance to file out the finger holes.  Five minutes later, bloody fingers. Emily likes to think she knows better than Mom about most things, she's a hard headed girl.
