I am delighted to report that Kat is the worst one in her class at ice skating. She is terrible at it! The other children literally skate circles around her but she loves every minute of it. She begs me to sign her up for the next session. Her brother wants to skate as well.
I think it is wonderful because she has always been one of those people that things come easily for. We got her a piano, she started playing. We gave her books, she taught herself to read. We take her to the park, she comes home with new friends. So now she is learning how to do something poorly but with grace.
I am always so proud when I see her on the ice. She falls, she stumbles, she doesn't glide but she is smiling the entire time. It's gorgeous!
