Elliot Goes Skiing

Before the dreaded influenza B hit, we managed to get Elliot on the slopes. He didn't love it - but he didn't hate it, either. A good first step for my nervous kid. I was thrilled. (Plus, his tiny rental skis were about the cutest thing I have ever seen.)

Later that day he was telling his grandma about ski school. He only mentioned other boys, so Suzan asked him if there were any girls in his class. He said there was one and Suzan asked him what her name was. After stopping to think for a moment, this was his response: "I don't know. But I know that she was hungry and wanted her mommy."

We didn't get any pictures of him actually skiing, but here is the before and after.
