Skate with the Greats

My job has some nice perks.  Occasionally, I get to go someplace or do something in the name of work and from time to time my whole family benefits.  On Friday night I took my family skating in Rockefellar Center for the 20th Annual Skate with the Greats benefit for Ronald McDonald house  which my company sponsored.   https://rmh-newyork.org/skate   My little one had a lot of concerns before we got there but took to it like a squirrel to a tree and zipped around the rink unaided overandoverandoverandover again.  I hadn’t skated in years so needing to stay close to her set the perfect pace.  My older girl glided effortlessly around, stopped to help the little one and smiled the entire time.  My favorite thing in the world is making my children happy and if I can do it while checking off another new thing it’s bonus time.  So skating in Rockefellar Center is off my list and smiley skatey satisfied children is the happy bi-product.
