Days are short, it's freezing cold and driving is usually crazy, but there are so many joys to winter in Canada too! Like skating for the first time with a toddler. Watching the joy and excitement on their face is priceless. Today we decided to get all bundled up and head out to the local rink for Lilia's first skate. She was so excited to get a pair of skates and kept yelling "Ice, ice". We couldn't figure out how she knew that you went skating on ice....of course when we asked her how she knew that she matter of factly told us Caillou went skating on ice. I should have known! We tried out both the bobskates and the "real" skates as Lilia likes to call them. We weren't really sure how to start to teach a toddler to skate but I think she did pretty darn good. She had a harder time with real skates on but I think she is determined enough to figure it out by the end of the season. Stay tuned to find out!
