Jump Rope for Heart

Thursday was my final day at Rock Canyon Elementary working with the students and the Jump Rope for Heart program :( Fortunately, I will be continueing my platform soon with Franklin Elementary in Provo-even though the pageant is over, they need my help and I LOVE playing with the little kids, so I am excited!!
Well on Thursday, it was a LOT of fun! There were about 4 different PE classes that came in while I was there and we jump-roped and had relays and contest, etc.! Something really funny and cute happened! As the second class came running in, a little blonde boy that looks just like my nephew dove straight to the floor and began doing push-ups! So I ran over to him and said-"Good job! You're doing awesome!!" and then I asked him why he was doing so many. He said, "BECAUSE...when I'm big and STRONG, I want to be able to hold the world!" Then I laughed and said WOW, and told him that he needed to come get me when he is able to do that because I want to see it! Then he laughed and said "OK, but I'm ALSO going to be carrying Jupiter too!" Haha! So I thought that was really really cute! I love little kids! They are just so innocent and have their little ideas that I love! Ha! Something else that was cool was that all these girls like formed a circle around me while we were jump-roping just so I could see how many times they were jumping! It was like a competition for them-that was cool to see and to see how much fun they were having! This was definitely a great experience for me and I am so grateful for all the help that was put into getting my program started :) Thanks everyone! Love ya!
