Today was the first day of tumbling class for Baby Mochi and the first gymnastics class for Big Mochi.  That gymnastics class is truly amazing.  It’s a bunch of 4-5 year olds following this energized teacher do super fun things and they actually are engaged the entire time!  I was so proud of her!  As for Baby Mochi’s tumbling class, they start at 18-months so basically it’s a bunch of babies going amok with all this play gym equipment.  Circle time is a 5-minute powwow for babies and parents to get used to being instructed for a few minutes to prepare them for the big kids class.  Every single kid sat there and followed circle time with wide-eyed attention doing what they were told – with the exception of mine.  She stood up, walked in the center of the circle and started dancing.  The music got her going, I guess.  Oh wait a second.  There WAS NO MUSIC!  When I got her to sit down, she flopped back and squirmed out of reach and ran to a nearby ball to throw or a wedge to climb.  I chatted briefly with other parents later about their cute obedient kids, only to find out that they had “just made 18 months.”  Then they try to help by saying, “She/he has an older brother/sister to copy.”  Uhh yeah, so does she, thanks.  G is not worried.  But again, he never is.  Whatever the case, both mochis are way fun to watch in these classes.  I’ll attach a picture tomorrow.  My camera’s in my car and frankly, I’m too comfortable on this couch to get up right now.  Even for you.
