Fifth grade

Aw gymnastics 🤸‍♀️

i used to take gymnastics for my fifth grade Year until i learned to do a flip 💁‍♀️

I decided to try one up a hill outside A friends house in the grass. And snap- there went my left wrist.

But I could not cry or let anyone know I was hurt- because I had a school gymnastics show later that night, and I’d be damned if Tracie wasn’t going to be cartwheeling around that blue gym mat!

I did one handed cart wheels and 11 year old tumbles painfully all night wincing as the parents on the little wood bleachers cheered.

But directly after the show I reported to dad – i think I Hurt my wrist.

Red and swollen i raised it to dad and off to the E.R. We went.
