Life 3 years later.....

We have a high school Freshman and a 3rd grader now.  They have both put away their gymnastic careers to move on to other sports such at lacrosse for Mia, and basketball and soccer for Leah.  

Mia plays goalie and is really enjoying the sport and new friends she has made over the last year of playing.   As she is new to the sport, she has a lot to learn, but loves the challenge and growth that goes along with it.  At home, she has become your typical teen.  On her phone or reading a book, and always hanging out away from the parents, but with that, I love spending time with her as she is a lot of fun and such a nice young lady.

Leahs caught the basketball and soccer bug.  Rarely does she go outside without either ball.  She is a busy body, so this suites her just fine.  If she isn't outside, she can usually be found doing crafts.  I have outlawed glitter in our house now, thanks to her.   She has made gallons of slime, and enjoys it every min making it.  Watching Youtube shows and basketball videos are another favorite of hers.  She is always finding something new to make or try out with the basketball. 

  
Below is a recent photo of our family.  All growing in our own way, along this path of being a family.  This coming year will be a challenge for all with Mia being a Freshman, and Ann starting to work at Leah's school in the preschool area.  Life is about adjustments and growth, and over the last few years we have all had our challenges, but with support of each other, we continue to overcome.
