So out of the blue during the Christmas Break Kira asks me if she can take Ice Skating Lessons. I said that I didn't know but I would look into it and see if there was a class. Sure enough there was, so I told Kira that if she wanted to we could do Ice Skating Lessons as soon as she goes back to school.
Nothing was said about it again. 

Until her first week back to school in January, on a Thursday (school started on Monday).

She then says "Mom, Guess What?!"

 I said "What?"

"School started again, you know what that means!"

I honestly had no clue and said "Um, you get to see your friends!"

In her ever so sensitive and understanding way she declared "Duuuuuh!!! I get to go to Ice Skating Lessons!"

I of course had made no effort to sign her up because she had not mentioned it again since we discussed it in December. I told Kira I had not signed her up and she was devastated! Hysterical sobs all the way to school. Thankfully I called up the place and asked to sign her up (late) the lady was very nice and allowed us to join.

They had us bring a helmet in case they fell and because I really do have a big baby for a daughter! (love her but...) After the first lesson she was pretty much done! She didn't like falling. I almost had a come apart when she said she didn't want to go anymore, since I had to go through a great deal of hastle to sign her up in the first place. So she had to go the rest of the time, after the first session then she could quit. She made it through and passed off all her levels in learning to skate and I think overall liked it. Of course by the end not only did we have to have our helmet but our elbow, knee and hand guards!

Thanks Cass for taking her every week!
