My friend Jason has a daughter a couple of years older than c. He also played hockey for a bunch of years, so he equipped that daughter when she was c's age with the cutest pair of hockey skates that the world has ever seen. Violet's now outgrown the skates, so we got them and on Saturday we packed them up and headed to the skating pond that's part of the park across the street.
We lucked out that it was just about thirty, so while cold it was still reasonable to be outside. We got there, put on our skates, and headed out. Surprising to no one, c was a natural.
By the end of the 20 minutes we spent out there c was both moving and getting back up from falling totally on her own. 2034 Olympic team here we come!
