True education seeks, then, to make men and women not only good mathematicians, proficient linguists, profound scientists, or brilliant literary lights, but also honest men, combined with virtue, temperance, and brotherly love – men and women who prize truth, justice, wisdom, benevolence, and self-control as the choicest acquisitions of a successful life-David O.

Brandon starts gymnastics classes
Brandon started gymnastics class this week at Skyview Gymmastics. Thanks to a wonderful friend who saw Brandon's potential for gymanstics, he is now having a blast jumping, swinging and flipping all over the place. Skyview Gymnastics offers boys classes and Brandon is in their Boys 2 class. I couldn't have been more impressed with the instructor who was motivating and encouraging but whose skills at redirection made Brandon feel positive and good about himself. As a mommy it was so fun to watch Brandon do such a great job, we were really impressed at the neat things Brandon seem to do with ease and how quickly he learned new skills when something was demonstrated to him. I doubt that we will stay each week to watch the 90 minute class, but Grandmom and I had a great time watching Brandon this first week, and even managed through the few times when our heart leaped out of our chest as Brandon when flying in the air. I think gymnastics seems like a great fit for Brandon and I was thrilled to see this huge smile on his face for almost the entire 90 minutes! Way to go Brandon!
