I hate being cold. And I hate bending. So trying to teach Avery to ice skate was a perfect storm. An ice storm, if you will. This episode is about how activities like swimming, riding a bike and skating are things we usually teach our kids at some point. But, for some of us achieving these skills feels impossible. And we feel guilty about that, so we keep trying. And sometimes we get frustrated and sweaty and sweary about it. But we want our kids to enjoy the same typical childhood activities as their peers.
Also, there's a story about a boy and a big white helmet that makes me laugh out loud.
