Hi everyone and apologies for snagging the title of a post below mine, I just couldn't think of a better way to describe myself that didn't sound like an AA meeting intro. I'm a single dad who's 9 year old daughter has been doing after school rec gymnastics through our city. She's started at an actual team now thanks to my sister, who is also a gymnast and apparently very active on this site. Gymnastics has always seemed like a crazy and expensive sport that sucks girls and their parents in. I'm thrilled my daughter is enjoying it but still pretty hesitant to be completely on board. That's why I joined this site, thanks to some "gentle" prodding from my sister. She says it's a great resource full of generally uncrazy people and will help change my attitude and answer my questions about the sport. I already paid the first couple checks for team membership and I think a uniform. I guess I'm sucked in now too.
