It happened the other day, Abby came up to me and said, " Mom I want to be a cheerleader!" My response, "We'll see, what about dance? You were so good at it!". No luck, she is dead set on being a cheerleader. The youth center here offers cheerleading in the winter months so I am going to have to swallow my pride and go sign her up. I'm sure some of you are wondering what is the problem with cheerleading? I don't know why but for some reason I just can't wrap my head around Abby being a cheerleader! I know there is nothing wrong with it but the idea just seems so foreign to me. Maybe it's because I am the most uncoordinated person I know. I run into walls for goodness sakes. Abby was good at dance and I know she'll be great at Cheerleading too. She does love being the center of attention and she had no problem getting up on stage at her dance recital either. I guess I'm doomed or destined. Destined to be the mother of a cheerleader! Maybe part of my hesitation is because I was never a cheerleader, I had aspirations as a freshman in High School to be one but alas it never panned out. I just hope Abby does well and enjoy's it and maybe I will too!
