I honestly could not have done it if all my kids were doing sports at the same time. Two is enough for this girl. The older three played but it wasn't like it is today. One sport at a time..lol! and all the lessons..how they are applicable to us all yes? I LOVE boys btw:)Grace just quit competitive gymnastics after three years of 25plus hours a week. I was VERY sad because of all the hard work she put in but also RELIEVED..I sure have a little more time:)<br />xoTiffinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00658423323731449505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2134254466445610818.post-81887324510179714402011-04-20T00:07:08.521-04:002011-04-20T00:07:08.521-04:00Great lessons!

It's given me and his dad a chance to assure him that his worth is not based on his performance and that one bad outing doesn't mean the next one will be. He has to approach each new opportunity with the belief that he can do it.Melindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01156194155140470909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2134254466445610818.post-65211956478136734552011-04-19T14:14:24.354-04:002011-04-19T14:14:24.354-04:00I think too, in trying different sports out, they ...I think too, in trying different sports out, they find out what they like, and what they don't like.
