Setting Intentions
March 2023 Slice of Life challenge
I absolutely love watching my daughter compete in gymnastics meets. I’m not nervous like the other moms that she’s gonna fall and hurt herself. Although I don’t know why. I probably should be more concerned. But she I have faith she knows what she doing, It’s strange this sense of pride I have for personally accomplishing nothing. My daughter is the one who’s in the gym practicing 4 days a week for hours on end doing all flippy spiny s*!t. She’s the tenacious one; the one with all the grit. All I do is continue write the hefty checks and chauffeur her to and from all gymnastics related activities. When she rocks an event and scores a 9. whatever I feel like I accomplished something amazing too. I’m not doing any flippy spinny things. Really my butt is sore sitting on those hard metal bleachers for 4-5 hours while I wait for her 1-2 minute windows to perform and I couldn’t love her and it more.

I am sure you know the name of all the flippy spinny things, but I like that you don't name them. It almost makes me believe that that is all you really do. Really though, you are her spotter, the foundation that makes all her success possible.
