Well, my munchkins cast came off yesterday. She is so excited to have her hand back. Bath time last night was full of drama as she was worried she may slip and fall. Gotta love 7 year old logic.
Headed to the gym tonight we were thinking she may be really hesitant. It certainly started that way with her not wanting to even bridge during warmups. They went to bars first and after about 5 minutes she came scampering out to ask if she could get on. We told her sure, but no spinning. So that was the end of her hesitancy. Her coach double checked with us and she still held her out of a few things but she's back on the horse.
She seemed down after practice. I feel kind of bad for her. Not only is she dealing with coming back from the broken finger, but moving from pre-team to team, tonight was her second practice in this facility (same gym different location). None of her other pre-team friends moved with her. All new faces, new gym, new coach. She was telling us over dinner how much she misses her old coach. I know she'll get over it, make new friends, etc. but I just wish this wasn't all happening at the same time.
