What can I say? Amelia is so Amelia. She just has such a different personality from Kathryn. She is so adorable, but sometimes we just don’t know what to do with her. She says great prayers and often sings her night personal prayer. Sometimes I don’t think she can sit still or even just use a quiet voice. But then she plays with Little People or nativity sets for a solid hour. Anyway, she started a gymnastics class today. Gymnastics seems to fit her personality. Plus when we were in Canada last summer a gymnastics coach (friend of a friend who happened to be at dinner with us) said she has something they look for in a future gymnast. Namely: lack of fear. She was jumping off a couch as far as she could and she was getting pretty far.
Anyway, here are a couple pictures from her class today. Sorry about the blurry one – I was juggling Daniel at the time and Amelia was on the move.
!! Who is her teacher?
That’s great! I wish at least one of my kids had that quality…. not too much. I don’t want them doing anything too dangerous. But they all seem to be scared to try anything.
