Gynmastics Recital & Blue Ribbon Day

Recently Zachary had his first gymnastics recital. Mom was out of town but Dad and Poppi went to watch Zachary perform his routines.

At the end of his rectial all the children were given individual medals of achievement. Little boys raise one arm to acknowledge their award. While little girls raise both arms (I'm not clear as to why)

Zachary was also acknowledge after a weekday class with a presentation the gym calls "Ribbon Day". On Ribbon day teachers award blue ribbons to the kids & give parents papers of accomplishment. Which detail the skills the children have mastered. Mom was excited to be able to witness Zachary standing on the block & raising his arm!

We are so proud of our son for his hard work & persistence in the gym!
