    Parents Another mommy brag

    Last week my daughter did a back walkover on the big beam by herself! Guess she's been getting the cartwheels so they moved on to something else. Funny how my DD never even reached a score over an 8 this past season on that beam but pulled this off? DH went to pick her up and confirmed it, cause...
