Nelly Jelly loves skiing to my great delight. She keeps asking “again? Again!” I couldn’t believe she was going on her own without holding my pole or hand by yesterday which was only her second time skiing. She begged to ride the chair lift over and over and when she got tired she said “nap?” And I said “want to go inside to rest?” And she said “no, nap on seat [lift].”
She was desperate to ski backwards like Charlie was doing. I was in heaven skiing with Charlie and Nelly at my side. Nelly’s laughter and delight going down and asking for pushes to go faster made my heart full and the hour spent dressing them all in snow pants, mittens and skis worth it.
