My husband and I were athletic growing up so our children have tried all the sports you could imagine young children can play. Jordan (almost 10) has played baseball since he was 4 and made All Stars last year, but decided this year he did not want to play. Kaelyn (who will be 5 in July) had taken gymnastics for several months and Jordan would watch the boys while she was doing her class. Kaelyn started showing no interest in gymnastics so we decided to pull her out. Jordan was saying he wanted to take gymnastics. I knew that would not go over well with my husband. When it came time for baseball/softball sign-ups Kaelyn wanted to play softball and Jordan wanted to take gymnastics. We decided to let Jordan try gymnastics and see if he would really like it. He absolutely loves it. We never knew how strong he was. We decided that it should not be what we wanted them to do but for us to let them do what they wanted to do. So Kaelyn is our STAR softball player and Jordan is our STAR gymnast. Kaelyn has already hit 2 home runs this season and Jordan had a gymnastics meet and will be practicing with the Team this summer. He has only been taking classes for 2 months so we are very proud of him. We are so blessed to have such wonderful healthy children.
