Ameri-Asian friend and her daughter


We've made friends with a lady who is Japanese (Hawaiian), married to a caucasian man and they have a daughter who looks caucasian. Both of them are as cute as they could be. I like them a lot. So does Lil M. Anyway, we've been trying for months to get together with them. So, it finally worked out for us to meet tonight at the gymnastics place where her daughter takes classes.

The place let Lil M take a trial class tonight and they looked up class the class roster to see if they could get her in the real class. Basically, they only take 6 kids in a class at a time... but one of the kids in this class hadn't gone at all this session... so, they called the family and apparently, it opened up a spot for Lil M!! :)

I think I'm more excited about her doing this than I have been the other stuff, even... mostly because I always wanted to do gymnastics when I was a kid. So, now, I get to live vicariously through her! :) I hope she loves it. If she doesn't, I won't force her to do it... but if tonight and the weekend were any inclination, I think it's gonna be a good fit for now!

I'm mostly excited about her learning more balance and confidence and body-awareness. Plus, she's just TOO dang cute!!!! Looks like I need to go get her a cute pink leotard. :) what she has works fine (basic black)... but i bet she'd love something more girly soon.... if she ends up liking the class.

My friend and I did notice that we got some funny stares from people... who assumed Lil M was with her and her daughter was mine. We remarked on it and both laughed. :)

Peace.
