Round and round she goes

Elizabeth has been watching the older girls (2nd/3rd graders) do the one legged flippy thing on the bar for weeks now. This week she tried to do it, but couldn't get all the way around. Yesterday, she was trying so hard, reaching her neck up, but not quite making it each time. Other parents were impressed she was even trying. Then an older girl came and did it again and I watched carefully. Then I told Elizabeth to sit up taller on the bar and put the bar under her thigh rather than under knee or in her crotch. She did and immediately got all the way around. This morning, I captured it. I'm sure she'll be going around and around in a few days.
