I saw the craziest thing yesterday!!  We have a park not far from our house.  Thursday evening my husband came home and told me he had seen the city watering an area of the park?  I didn’t get it.  It was -3 outside and someone was watering?  So Friday on the way to take the kids to school, I looked over and there was a large area that had been cleared with snow around the banks. In that clearing was ice!!!  They had made an ice rink!! Never in all my years had I seen anything like it. 

Now being a good mother, I took Michael to the store to look for ice skates of his own.  The first store was out, so we went to another used specialty store and found hockey skates for him.  We went home and told dad, who was very busy… So after much fussing and whinning, I took Robbie and Michael to the park.  There was one little girl skating with her parents watching.  So mom helped Mike with the skates and there he went.  I was so proud of him it was his second time on the ice and he was terrific… It was like watching his older brother all over again.  A natural!  I’m not sure where this will lead, but it was a real kick not only seeing Michael skate, but knowing that in the spring the rink will be gone.
