We were living in Florida and Emma was in Kindergarten when Beth came home and said Ally and McCoy are going to start taking Rhythmic Gymnastics and Emma wants to too.  Ally and McCoy were a year older than Emma but they were all friends and we were friends with their families.  Sounded like a great idea.  I knew very little about Rhythmic Gymnastics other than I had seen it in the Olympics a few times over the years.  Shortly after they began McCoy decided to move on to other things and it was just Emma and Ally.  They both kept at it and would go to a 'competition' here or there.  About a year later Ally decided to pursue other interests.  It was about this time we figured Emma would get bored and her interests would change.  But as time went on she moved up in divisions and classes and competitions became more frequent and longer.  Within a couple years Rhythmic was her 'thing'.  She would have practice 4-5 time...
