Emily's last gymnastics class

Doing the obstacle course - this station was assisted cartwheels.

So far the balance beam has consisted of walking with assistance, walking with little assistance (teachers standing right next to them) and walking while lifting one leg up at a time. Today they worked on doing headstands on the beam! I couldn't believe it when I saw it. Emily wasn't too sure about it at the time but was sure proud to tell me about it after the class was over.

Here is Emily finally doing a somersault by herself, well kind of. For all of the classes this session she has just been content to have the teachers help her flip over. Not because she can't do it by herself but because she knows they'll help her and she doesn't have to do it herself. Funny!
