11/23/20 – A Tough Day For Gymnastics

You slept in so long that you missed Daddy. When you woke up you were looking for him and you were sad that he was already gone. I hate feeling like I’m rushing you in the morning. I struggle with letting you grab all the extra sleep you can with balancing trying to get to school on time.

We Facetimed with Ms. Sandy on the way to Gymnastics while you ate your snacks. However, once you were in class, you didn’t really want to participate. You sat off to the side for at least half the class. I’m not sure what’s up with that because you have always love gymnastics. You kept coming out of the class telling me you want to leave. Even when I reminded you that you are really close to moving up to the 5 year old class, but we need to have good listening ears, you still didn’t bounce back.

We went to Detweiler’s to get more rambutans and Grandma Noot came over for dinner. Of course the second we go home you were running around naked. We ate and played, then you biked the block with Daddy (the only way to finally get you dressed too!!). You guys ran into Ms. Moe, dropped Harry off and did another lap on your scooter.

While we were getting ready for bed, you told me to don’t want to do gymnastics anymore. My heart broke. I asked why because you are so good at it. But you didn’t have a reason. I hope that you don’t mean it. I know we have been off schedule and you are getting back to normal, so I hope this doesn’t stick. If it does, of course I will respect your wishes…I guess I have to get used to your growing independence since you seem unwilling to stay little forever! At times like these, please be patient with me…I’m still learning too! I adore you and I just want the best for you. You deserve the entire world…

I love you so much.
