Theres A First Time For Everything

Garrett went skating for the first time ever this weekend. I was kinda scared to take him because I wasn't sure how he would do, and I didn't want him to start 2nd grade with a cast! He did great! He fell a lot but he always got right back up with a big smile on his face. It was so funny to watch, I have never seen anyone skate the way this boy did. His feet moved so fast and he only went about an inch with each stride. After 20 minutes or so of trying to get him to move his feet a little less I gave up and let him do it his way. I know it had to have been exhausting to skate like that but he went at in for two hours nonstop. In the video below you see him come around and skate off the floor, that was the only time he stopped...I stopped taping and walked over where he told me he was ready to go! the last picture shows why I love this boy so much...He truly enjoys every moment of life! I love this video! You can see how hard he works at it...just like everything else in life, this boy always gives it his all!
