My First Blog Post: My Life

Hello, my name is Chloe.  I am 11 years old.  I am in 6th grade.  I live in a cozy house near the lake.  My household members are my mom (Heidi), my dad (Joey), and my two younger siblings Jayden and Ava.  I also have two dogs: Muffin (8 Years), Oscar (5 months).

I am a Level 6 competitive gymnast.  That keeps me at the gym 5 days a week, for a total 13 1/2 hours.  I love doing gymnastics!   One of my strong events is floor.  I have gotten very good at my tumbling passes!  I am also a headcase.  I tend to think about things WAY to much.  I get very scared to do some of the skills!  I always have to push through that fear though.  My friends cheer me on all the time!  That helps me get through those tough times!  They are always there for me.  I try to always be there for them, and to cheer them on whenever they need it, and to also help them up if they fall, mentally and physically.  My coaches also help me SO much!  They know I get frustrated really easily!  They also know I am a headcase and help me push through the fear.  I love my friends and my coaches!

Another thing I love is playing the violin.  My violin teacher, Mike is the best!  He helps me so much!  He understands when I get frustrated and helps me get past that.  I also want to play the guitar.  When I get my guitar, Mike is going to teach me to play it too!

Another thing you will want to know about me is that I am homeschooled.  I love homeschooling!  In my opinion, homeschooling is WAY better than public school!  Here's why:

1. I don't have to get up very early
2. I get a lot of free time
3. I don't have to worry about being bullied.
4. I get to do things like go to the mall in the middle of the day.
5. I don't have ANY homework. (or maybe it is just ALL homework!)
6. Sometimes I even get to stay in my pajamas!
7. I get to make pretty much whatever I want for lunch.
8. I usually don't have that much work.
9. I get to be in my own house while I do my work.
10. My MOM is my TEACHER!
    

 My life can be very busy at times, but I get a lot of free time when I don't have extra activities.  At night I enjoy reading.  I LOVE to read!  I read for about 2 hours each night!  My friends at the gym think I'm CRAZY, but I really do read that much!  Ask my mom!

That is my life in a nutshell.   This is my first blog post!  I am very excited about having a blog!  My mom also has a blog!  Now I get to be just like her!  In the future, I want to blog about my family.  Family means a LOT to me.  I think of it as family, school, gymnastics, and everything else!!!  I hope this post helps you know a little bit about me!
