Ouch!

So yesterday, being Thursday, Kellyanne was supposed to go to her 2nd class at The Little Gym.  We got one of those nice email reminders that they wanted her back, her name, after all was written right there, a reminder to KELLYANNE that they were excited to see her again.  Okay, yes, I know it's the standard email they send to everyone who had been to a trial class, but still, there it was.
We had spoken to the owner the day before, a wonderful man, who explained that he was not able to secure a shadow for Kellyanne and that we would have to wait until he came up with someone or a plan to fit her in....or something to that effect.  I get it, I really do.  But it still doesn't take the pain away that my child was turned away because she didn't "fit in".  I'm not faulting the business.  They are working hard to make accommodations for Kellyanne, but the pit in my stomach was there on Wednesday night.  Kellyanne had talked about her gymnastics class, we bought her a gymnastics mat last weekend (thankfully off Craigs List) so she could practice forward rolls and the like, we used it as a carrot for "big girl" behavior......but she couldn't go last night and it made me sad.  And then to add insult to injury, this morning when I opened my email there was the note from The Little Gym telling KELLYANNE how much they missed her - again - a standard email that goes out to all who go to a trial class and then don't return....but, OUCH! That hurt!
