This morning we went to 8 Rinks for our Winter Holiday skate. It was a busy, tiring and magical morning. The kiddos skated to nearly the point of exhaustion. There were so many remarks at lunch time that they were exhausted, hungry, sweaty, boiling hot and having legs that were so tired they couldn’t walk. But following these remarks came the question “WHEN ARE WE GOING BACK?! SKATING IS AMAZING!” All in all this morning was a 10/10 and many of us can not wait to do it again!
I am so proud of the many risk takers in Division 7 who either tried skating today for the very first time, for those who went outside their comfort zone and tried something that they felt they were emerging at, and those who fell and got up and tried again, and again. My heart was overcome with happiness and gratitude when I watched so many compassionate and loving kiddos extend a helpful hand for those that fell, or those that were nervous.
Wishing the children of Division 7 and their families a beautiful, restful, relaxing and magical Winter Break.
See you all next year in 2020!!
