this first video is of luke on the rings. you’ll notice that he looks over to his right during the event b/c my mom was sitting close by. she must have gasped or something, she did the gasp thing right as i was pushing luke out of my body, he was crowning. her gasp made me think i was pushing out an alien for real, or that something went horribly wrong. i’m not going to let her sit so close anymore due to her inability to control her gasping.
he was only one that did the rings, the other boy was a level 2 and was a bit more advanced than luke and did his specialized routine on the pummel horse. it takes quite a bit of strength to do the pummel horse, have you ever REALLY looked at gymnasts? they are strong.
the floor routine, he originally asked them if they had any john lennon in their selection (swear to god), they did not, so he settled for lenny kravitz. close enough.
picture of luke and his big sister, she’s very proud of he.

kidstubestaff: i’m not sure how comfortable i’d be with that, i’ll need to check out your site a little more. thanks for the invite.
john: glad to have you over for a visit, have been lurking on yours for a bit and i like it. luke’s only been taking gymnastics one day a week for about six months now, and bi-weekly summer gymnastics camp. he really enjoys it.
marty: the boy said he wants to go to the olympics, so i’ll support that as long as he desires it. can’t wait for the games to start on 8.8.08 this year!
scott: and how! i used to be that flexible, from a sitting position with my legs in a Y, i could touch the floor with my nose.
