Postcards from the Rink

Wednesday was my first day of skating class. Grace got herself ready to go onto the ice while I paced around, talked with folks, signed kids in for Junior Club (a class for more advanced skaters). I watched Grace work with Roxanne and practice on her own, then I watched her skate with her Junior Club class. Somehow, watching her helped me relax a bit and as I calmed down I decided to give myself permission, again, to just have fun.
