I took the kids ice skating today. Sadie had never been. Soen had been once, last winter. When I mentioned it this morning he asked if he could get that "magic gum" that he had last time. Figures that the one thing that would stick out in his mind would be the candy he had that day. He said, "Please, Daddy? It will be just like old times."
Anyway, we went, we had fun, and the kids even had some "magic gum." (This turned out not to be gum at all, but a jawbreaker. Its ability to change colors was apparently "magical" to the Soen. Sadie tired of it after about five minutes and spit it into my hand.) Sadie enjoyed it. I think she even fared better than Soen did, who needed to take a few breaks from the action. He's not the toughest guy I've ever met. Then again, neither was I.

Thanks for all the pictures I have been looking for. Kit's family apparently as often called butterflys -- flutterbys. It is one of the last thing Kit's mom saw and commented on the afternoon we were with her. I miss the kids. Hugs to all. Grandma Bonnie
Great skating Sadie. And Soen is the flutterby king.
Wow, she's a great skater! I'm very impressed.
I personally thinks she gets this skating ability from me - I was an ace at roller skating with the neighborhood kids in a one car garage..........hardly ever fell down.........of course, no tricks, turns, or skating backward........ice - not quite so talented. On second thought, she must get this from Bonnie! dd
I am bringing my skates, I totally want to go skating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
