Sarah

Sarah is our little monkey child. She is ten years old and LOVES gymnastics. Sarah also is good at piano and school. She always has her head in the books. Sarah is an
independent child. She tries to hurry through projects and housework to
get to the better things in life, but the not always great quality shows. We
are trying to decide what to do about her gymnastics abilities. We are sure
we can afford the huge expense of competitive gymnastics, but want to not
extinguish her love for the sport. She is in the top level of recreation gym. She is considering going for the show tumbling team and repeating level 6 optionals before moving up to the competitive team. It is a huge time and financial commitment. I find it hard to find that balance between school, family, church and extra activities for the kids. Church leaders have urged us to carefully consider not over scheduling our kids or ourselves!
