In Ojai with our friends Courtney,Tom and Caris. Emilia and Caris decided to have a sleepover.
Five minutes after the door closed, Emilia walks out and says:
Mom, I changed my mind and she didn’t like it. So I’m leaving.
Emilia then walked to her brothers room where there are two beds. I followed her, tucked her in and reaffirmed – Nice job today. You can always change your mind and if it bothers someone else you can always leave.
Emilia said – Mom, I don’t like chatty friends when I’m trying to sleep.
Me too Mimi. Me too.
After a pretty disheartening experience at the YMCA, we’ve signed up for a real gymnastics class at a real gymnastics gym. Emilia was IN TO IT. I don’t think she walked once, she skipped.
First time out there.
Im particularly impressed with this wallwalk/handstand hold. Really nice form, straight arms and a long time for a four year old to hold it. Effortless! https://youtu.be/QGY8V0ppdmw
Also, I never have a problem spotting my kids in a class. Those Watson genes are towering!
Yesterday, Tucker wanted to fast forward through his program. I was attempting to do it with the universal remote and he subtely but quickly grabbed the remote from my hands “Mom.. Can I… Here, let me do it”. And properly fast forwarded to the point in his show.
