Future Olympian...or Future Clutz?

The other day we were watching the Olympics and they had a human interest story about a Chinese acrobatic school for orphans. They showed each kid do a back bend one after another. Annie got excited about it and exclaimed "I can do dat!". She got up, put two legs on the couch and one arm on the other couch and proceeded to support herself with one arm on the ground. I was pretty impressed by her feat of strength, but I had to give it a 3 (mainly because it really wasn't technically correct form for a back bend and secondly because feats of strength such as that should really be saved for Festivus). Next came Annie's version of the floor exercises which turned out to be a bunch of running in circles with a few jumps mixed in and then a fall to the floor. She was practicing a new move last night...a high starting value dismount from the couch. Unfortunately she didn't stick the landing...she ended up landing on a toy train engine that was (no surprise here) just randomly sitting on the floor, and hurt her foot. So now I think she will have some trouble qualifying for more events...we think she may have twisted her ankle a bit because she says it still hurts her and she is walking a little gimp-ily. There is nothing quite as sad as a 2 year old with a limp (okay, a 1 year old with a limp is sadder - she injured her ankle last summer too)....well forcing orphans to do back bends is pretty sad too, I guess.
