Special Olympics

Emily started gymnastics and I'm very impressed with her determination, especially on the rope. She'll climb up as far as she can, then just cling to it, pausing for a while instead of just coming down like they usually do. Suddenly she'll reach up and bring herself a little higher to the amazement of all. (Picture me beaming in the stands and calculating the intense commitment Mary Lou Retton's mother must have had to her daughter's Olympic dream). All heads up to Emily as she prepares for a safe landing, but wait, she's reaching UP, aaaand...Wow she's done it again!! Later I hear about the green haired boy who said she was "really strong". A well-deserved compliment for simply trying her best.

My lovely friend Jane made this for us. Thomas is fascinated by that ball.
