Riley And the Race Car

Riley had skating class again this week. She is once again miffed at the fact that Ms. Megan has taken away her "race car" and makes her skate without help. She is in Level 1 Hockey, so she started out with the walker, but since Ms. Megan knows she was already in Level 2 before, she knows Riley can skate without it. There are 2 or 3 kids in the class that she takes the race car away from during class. She has gotten pretty darn good without it, but Riley still freaks a little. Honestly, I think she falls more with it than without it because she goes too fast when she has it! I do think she is getting better at not freaking as badly though. We aren't going to push it. If she decides after this winter that she's done, we will move on to something else for her. But at least Daddy can take her out skating for fun now!
