Two Gymnasts

Last summer Clara started gymnastics and did it for a couple months in the summer and into the fall until indoor soccer started.  In the late fall Joshua started gymnastics and did it through the winter until spring outdoor soccer started.  Although at times they have both been in gymnastics at the same time they have never been going on the same day.  But this summer they are both in gymnastics, and the best time given the available classes was to have them go back-to-back on Mondays.  So I take Joshua in my car for his 5:40 class, which lasts 50 minutes.  Then Meghan shows up with Hannah (who's just along for the ride) and Clara.  I then bring Joshua out to the car and take Clara out of the car to come with me, and Meghan drives Joshua and Hannah home.  Clara's class goes from 6:40 to 7:30, and after that I drive us back home.  So it's a little bit tricky, but we pull it off.  I'm sure in a few years when we have three different kids in multiple activities and we're driving around the city like crazy people to all the practices and games and whatnot that we will even more appreciate how simple this setup is, so we're trying to enjoy it while we can.  In the meantime, it's just these two going to gymnastics right now.  They seem to like it a little less than they previously did, so we'll have to see if we do it again in the fall.
