It's had a pretty big impact on my joints…
A few short years ago, when my cp came home from a friend's competition and said "Mommy, I want to do THAT!" I had no idea what I was getting into, as I'm sure many of us don't.
The gym, and the friends we've met through cheer (this includes the Fierce Board, for me,) have walked us through unimaginable life changes: Cancer, heart attack, divorce, job loss...And the gym has always been the refuge. It's the "watering hole." Like our version of Cheers. At any given time, we can walk in and we know someone. I have friends from all different backgrounds, all across the country now, that I can text at any given time for any different reason, and they understand us perfectly.
Cheer gives us something to do. Somewhere to be. When home sucks, it's ok. We're going to the gym anyway. When nothing can take my kids' minds off their troubles, cheer can. Working on skills gives them a reason not to quit. They've had a whole lot to deal with in the past couple of years, and I can honestly say, if it wasn't for cheer, I'm not sure how we all would've made it through.
