Well, dd made finals! That was her main goal, to make it to finals. She qualified in 6th place and finished 6th place overall!
I am over the moon proud of her. She, well, she is upset that her teammate did better than her. More upset that this particular teammate rubs it in her face that she does better than her. *sigh* Something to discuss once back home.
Organization was a mess at the meet, no official team Ontario photo taken as has been done for the past 9 years... awards scattered throughout the day, no rhyme or reason... it took 3 hours for the tumbling results for dd's category to be posted. OH they forgot. Overall a bit of a disappointing $3000 experience for me.
BUT it's not about me, and I think a very good overall learning experience for dd and I am SUPER HAPPY that she is the 6th best tumbler in her level in all of Eastern Canada!! Not too shabby for an 8 year old in a 9-12 year old age division if you ask me.
Now (for reasons that elude me) NOW we move on to the Provincial Championships... she has qualified in all 3 of the T&T events for this, tramp, tumbling and double mini... this isn't until June so her new goal she says is to get her whip to add to the optional tumbling line.
Thanks for reading my novel update!!! ONTARIO-OWNS!!!! (Bogwoppit you might recognize that, lol)
