roller skating

On Wednesday I took the kids roller skating at Oaks Amusement Park - in the summer, there are carousel and bumper cars and assorted other rides, but in the winter they just open up their big indoor space for preschool skating. It was really fun, for all of us. Seb and Liesl were both very game to try it out and kept standing up and moving forward after their many spills. I got skates too, and spun and twirled and raced around. I was particularly proud of our boy, who is often tentative when approaching new things, for his willingness to persist.
