Proud Parent
Short Stack turned 11 on Monday, and she didn't have practice until last night. My husband took video of her teammates digging a depression in the pit by the beams, her teammates singing to her, one teammate pushing her off beam into the pit, and her teammates burying her in pit foam.
The reason I feel blessed is that every single one of the girls (ages 10-13) on that Level 5 team is a good kid. There are no mean girls, and they all genuinely support each other.
As I said in a post in one of the social groups, floor, this past Friday, felt like I was at a college meet. Both Short Stack and one of her teammates have been struggling with their ROBHSBT all season. They both finally landed them with good body position during competition. Both times, their team went wild.
I feel blessed because I know how good we've got it. I've read so many stories here of mean girls and bullying. Maybe I am just feeling sentimental, but I wanted to share.
I am sad, because I know that several of the older girls may not continue to optionals because of other interests. It will be sad to see this wonderful group of girls split up.
