Yep, they were on the same team |
Sunshine, cool weather and it's Friday! We all slept in (again!) until almost 8 a.m. Linda has never been able to sleep past 7 a.m. and twice this week she found herself still abed past that time. Chim and Chip stayed quite too. We have an open morning since her first class isn't until 12:00. The carpet really, really needs to be shampooed (someone had an accident the other day... Linda still is not sure which pet did it) but she also needs to spend 2 hours getting started on learning her Water in Motion release. Sometimes she can mow, clean or eat and practice the routine at the same time, but not the first time she looks at it. When I was little, I used to run and hide when she started kicking and punching in the house. Now, I'm so used to it I just stay asleep out of legs way. Linda remembers when Taylor was in 3rd or 4th grade. She home schooled him for a little while. They would do all the school work from 6-9 a.m., then he would go to the gyms with her while she taught classes. Many times he took the class. He got so good at counting the music 32 count phrases, cuing and doing the steps that he led the warm-up. She clearly remembers him yelling "Come on, move it ladies!" He was even one of her back-up team when she recorded a workout show for TV. There were also Redskin football players who worked out at the gym she taught at. He would play racquetball or shoot hoops with them when he was only 8 or 9 years old! No wonder he turned into such a great athlete (well that and he is 100 feet tall!)
