Nina received a special honor last week. She was named the Athlete of the Month at her tumble/cheer gym. While her coach told me ahead of time that she was going to receive the honor, she was completely surprised when her coach made the announcement. She received the tank top (pictured below), the feather boa, and the crown while her coach talked about why she was the recipient. While we are very proud of the progress that she’s made in her tumbling as of late, we were most proud that her coaches said that she was selected because she consistently works hard, she overcame a lot of her fears, and she never gives up on working towards goals she wants to accomplish. Needless to say, she was thrilled with the honor of being selected, and we were super proud of her also. We celebrated by heading to Sweet Frog when she got home from practice!
Pumped up from her Athlete of the Month selection, she landed a new trick that she had been working on - a roundoff backhandspring tuck. I love the celebration afterwards! :)
