Ian's first time skating! Well, sort of!Daddy took him to the local arena and strapped on the skates for the first time in many years. Hockey skates, no less. Kind of a recipe for disaster, I guess, but what the heck. I figured we could crash together!
Some kids (and dads) who were learning were using a chair for balance. You know, to get the feel. It seemed like a decent idea, so I finally got Ian to try it. He did really well and had lots of fun! I did, too. Even though the majority of the time was spent with Ian seated in the chair and Daddy pushing him from behind, trying really hard not to crash or twist an ankle!
It brought back memories of my mom and I. She used to bring me skating and I loved it.
So it was a lot of laughs and I'm glad he tried it. We'll have to go again.
