:: rookie league ::

Alden is not much of a team sport kind of guy, yet. When we tried Net Busters (soccer), last year, he just wanted to do it by himself, and soon, not at all. This year, when the idea of hockey came up, we knew he just wasn't ready, even if Owen started when he was four. However, Woodland's implementation of a non-commital rookie league team for all first year players was the perfect idea. Each week we bring him up to the ice to skate and he has just wanted to skate on the pleasure rink by himself. No team. It is amazing how quickly these little ones pick up skating.

BUT, last week, look what he did!


That's him standing in the middle looking at the camera. 


And that's him scooting along in the back.


And look, he's skating so fast, the picture is blurry. :-) You get the point. The original deal was 5 minutes with the team and he skated for 30 minutes! Go Ald!
