Another Season Ends

Today William and Daniel did their skating shows, and end-of-season tradition for ice skating at the Pop Whalen Arena in Wolfeboro. Both boys are skating well, but Danny is the one who's made the really big leap. The last time he tried to skate, he spent the whole time on his hands and knees, afraid of falling. This time, he started right off learning how to get up properly after a fall, and never looked back.

Sure, he falls--they both do--but he gets right back up and keeps going, and his skating is worlds better than before. Both boys feel very comfortable on the ice, and the biggest problem we have is getting them to come home at the end.

Our Spring-like weather continues, without all the rain, and the snow is already starting to disappear. Mud season has arrived early in New Hampshire, and I, for one, am glad to welcome it. We have a lot to do on our house, and it's going to be a lot easier when the weather is warmer and dryer.

Right now I have to get myself ready for bed. More to come this weekend, along with some promised changes in the way I do pictures.
