I have never been able to do cartwheels.
I always desperately wanted to. In the 5th grade I did one perfect one, once. I was too scared to ever try again.
But last night, at age 23, I learned how to do a cartwheel.
And who was my gymnastics teacher?
My 26 year old husband.
Yes, Austin does perfect cartwheels. Almost as well as he ice skates.
{a skill he attributes to years of roller-blading, you know, the cool version of ice skating}
The moral of this story is it's never too late to fulfill a childhood dream.
Cartwheels are just as wonderful as I always imagined they would be.

I wish I could have been there--I would have clapped for you like I always did when you were a little girl and you had a new trick to show me! I bet that was some entertainment for your neighborhood!
i love cartwheels! i'm secretly impressed that austin can do them and really impressed that he can ice skate -- that one is sooo hard for me!
go keatons! you guys could join an adult gymnastics class. or maybe you could do gymnastics and he could do ice skating. thoughts?
