Gymnastics Girls

Typically Liesel has gymnastics on Thursday nights and Ireland goes on Tuesday nights with Brent. Vacation forced us to schedule some make up days and in a rare event, they both had class tonight. Ireland was able to watch Liesel, then Dad joined us and Liesel was able to observe him with Ireland. Just before her class started, Ireland noticed Liesel was there and she ran up to the glass. 

I rotate their leotards so they get equal wear and tear but both girls happened to be wearing a combination of ballet pink and black. When Liesel finished her class, Ireland ran up to her. Liesel responded by picking her up in a bear hug. In that noisy gym full of yelling coaches and kids flipping, tumbling and jumping, time stood still for a moment. I'm glad they love taking gymnastics, but it melts my heart that they love and support each other.
