Elliot

We went back to skating today. Cloverdale Arena. 2:45pm. Almost didn't make it. But we did. Elliot was tired, so very tired. But he did great. Stood up on his skates by himself (though he was quite upset with me for letting go). Walked on his skates with me only holding one of his hands. He knocked over a collection of bowling pins which had been set up for him by his instructor.
Every Saturday is "Hockey Day in Canada" for Elliot now.

Elliot Murray: "what day is it today, daddy?"
David Stanley: "today is Saturday, elliot."
Elliot Murray: "Hockey Day in Canada?"
David Stanley: "Yeah, that is right. It is Hockey Day in Canada today."

Only a couple of lessons left now.
Great progress has been made.
