Today I took Peanut & Macnut to watch their first competition at the Ice Palace. Since they have just begun skating, I figured that they would get a better feel of what they can work towards. They also had some friends skating in the competition, so it was exciting for them to help support & cheer their IceFriends on.
Peanut has been saying that she wants to skate really good so she can win a trophy, so I told her that if she skates & practices really hard, that she could eventually enter a competition and win a trophy of her own (she didn't seem to like the idea as she is a very shy kid). However, when it came time for the skaters to warm-up & skate their routines, she was glued to the glass like a starfish.
After the competition on the way home, I asked if she enjoyed it & she said yes. Then I further inquired if she was possibly interested in competing one day, she immediately said "Yes, Mommy! And I want to skate to the Pug Thugs song (aka I Have A Dream from the movie Tangled)". Who knows, she may start participating in a competition next year.
