Yes, I know how it can be to be the recipient of stares by other mothers. I know how it feels...trust me. But, Maddie has every right to be there and the only way she is going to grow and be the best she can be in life is to be in the real world with everyone else. It is more than just tumbling to our kids...and that is what those other moms will never understand or know. Someday too you may reflect back and this this is not a big deal...but on the other hand I think you may see this as more of a big deal than you think. It is a stepping stone in Maddie's life to learning social skills. Our kids need that because without these small stepping stones they will never reach the big ones. Hang in there...you are doing a great job with her! :)Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01201595211241091609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3825000868976601610.post-91379406040658491152013-09-06T08:39:52.295-07:002013-09-06T08:39:52.295-07:00Ah Maddie...She has such a strong determined perso...Ah Maddie...She has such a strong determined personality, I love that about her. I haven't had Russell around other kids his age enough to see what he acts like. That's one of the down sides of living way out of town, we don't get to activities or play groups enough. Sounds like Maddie is learning a lot from this tumbling class, lot's about appropriate social interactions. Seems like all our kids need help in that area. And never mind what other parents think, like you said Maddie has the right to be there, and she loves it, so that's all that really matters :)JChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16040699928110444013noreply@blogger.com
