Sophia finished High School! Time flies. She had four awesome years of track. Her PR in the 100m Hurdles was about 14.93. She finally broke the fifteen seconds. She competed at Drake Realys and State Championship in Des Moines. I always enjoyed watching her racing.

Sophia is practicing Track & Field
Sophia is now a freshman in High School. Although she quit gymnastics a few years ago, she continues to exercise and this time she is doing Track. She ran 30.75 sec in 200 m. That is an awesome time. Although there are girls who can run 200 m in 28 sec, 30 seconds is still pretty good. I hope she understands that.
The best thing, is that there is room for improvement. She needs to believe she can do it. I know she can!

Sophia the Gymnast
Sophia has been practicing gymnastics for several years now. But, not sure if she is getting tired, or maybe she wants to explore other activities. She says she wants to do cross country and track in Junior High School. Her school asked for a picture of her to include in the sixth grade album. I made a collection of some of her photos and I'd like to do a video with the pictures.

Gotcha Day #7
I am so glad to have Sophia as my daughter. Today, we celebrate seven years of Sophia being with us. She is growing up and becoming a wonderful girl. Today, we started learning countries and capitals in Central and South America. There were ten countries I did not know their capital. She asked me to make a list of them and memorize them! She is the one who challenges me to learn something everyday. Shouldn't be the opposite?

I enjoy watching Sophia practicing gymnastics, and also the other young girls. She loves practicing and I can't wait to see her doing more advanced stuff.
Here's a couple of videos of this morning practice:

We go for lunch after her practice. She eats so slow... I guess that's not a bad thing.

Especially for You 5K
Sophia cannot wait to start running races. She was frustrated this morning knowing that we were not allowing her to run with mom. I'd wished my foot was healed and I could run with my kiddos.

Ready for summer vacation
Sophia is very excited to go to Cozumel. She wants to swim all day and snorkel in the ocean. She likes to kayak in the Iowa lakes. Here she is at Kent park's lake, ready to go kayaking. She is having a wonderful summer.
