Skating and bouncing

Eli is still off-track (one more week), so we went on a fun outing with my sister and her cute kids. I was really proud/excited because my kids have always gotten easily frustrated with things like skating. It's hard, and so they want to quit almost immediately. However, this time they perservered and really enjoyed it. Eli kept falling and getting back up as if it was no big deal, and again, that's not been his approach in the past. He's growing up.
