Wheels on the feet

The boys were invited to their first rollerskating birthday party today.  It took a little time, but they both eventually started to get the feel of rolling instead of walking.  As we were leaving they each asked if we could go back again.

The roller rink brought back so many memories of “skating parties” my Catholic school had at the local roller rink.  Similar carpet, benches, lockers.  It was like walking back in time as you passed through the entrance doors.  It’s fun to think that there are still places like this open for our kids to participate in an increasingly uncommon activity like rollerskating.
