One of the highlights of our trip to Ohio was ice skating in downtown Akron. This was Alli's first time on the ice, and she was very excited. As we put her skates on her she asked, "Are ice skates magical?"
I took her out on the ice. Andy stayed rink-side to watch Ruby and take some pictures. We skated around the rink a few times, each time Alli's balance and stability improved. After the third lap, Alli was tired. Me too.
I enjoyed skating with her, and I thought of my Grandma Ellene George McKay who loved figure skating dearly. She taught her children and many of her grandchildren to skate as soon as they could walk. It is wonderful to pass down this tradition to my children.
