Hannah enjoys attending a recreational gymnastics class at a local gym. I enjoy watching her and seeing her progress. She may never be an Olympian but that’s fine with me, I’m just happy to see her active and pursing improving her skills!

My Sweet Twirler’s First Baton Recital!
As a child I twirled baton for about 8 years and this year Hannah chose to follow in Mommy’s footsteps and twirl too.
Tonight was her first baton recital! My sweet little Olaf.
As she and her teammates walked onto the gym floor I was overwhelmed with awe once again that I am the Mommy of this most amazing little girl! Tears immediately sprang to my eyes just at the sight of her. I hope I never, ever lose these ‘pinch me’ moments!!
Hannah was excited and yet a little nervous too which is understandable! I enjoyed watching her (through my tears of joy) and had to giggle as I saw her directing her friends little bits throughout the routine. Yes, she is her mother’s daughter!!
The girls also did a cute little pom routine.
Way to go Hannah!!!
Hannah was blessed to have wonderful coaches this year who taught her so much! Coach Jackie:
Grandma and Grandpa were able to come out and support their littlest twirler too. Oh the memories the recital brought back for all of us! (Uncle Dave I believe stayed as far away as possible as he still has nightmares about the years of torture he endured attending my competitions week after week and listening to march music ad nausium) )
Mommy is so proud of you Hannah! It was such a treat watching you twirl this year and I will be excited to see what you choose to do in the fall. She hasn’t quite decided between gymnastics and baton but right now it appears gymnastics is winning out. Time will tell.
