Have You Seen Brady?

While in Provo for Spring Break Brady and Paige really wanted to go ice skating. Paige went last year with Grandpa. Grandpa is a darn good ice skater. His list of talents never ceases to amaze us. I guess growing up in the land of perpetual winter taught him a few things.

Brady has never been ice skating. Brady is good at everything. Immediately. We all know it. We all accept it. There is just something about this kid athletically. One time at the doctor's office, upon listening to Brady's heart, the pediatrician told me that he had an "athletic" heart beat. When I asked him what that meant, he told me that he had listened to thousands of heartbeats, and this one just had some "get up and go" in it. That's Brady, I thought. And, have you ever seen this kid ski? Play baseball? (even when his parents don't spend time practicing with him? Poor kid) Some people just have "it."

Well, Brady met his match on the ice.

It was so funny to watch him. Each member of my family came to me, separately, and commented on Brady and his skating "ability."

Paige: Have you seen Brady? He looks funny.

Justin: Have you seen Brady? It's weird that he's not very good at this. It's funny to see him struggle at something!

Darren: Have you seen Brady? I can't believe it's this hard for him. You never see Brady like that!

Brady is good at laughing at himself and was the first to admit that ice skating was a little more than a challenge for him. He's my favorite kid, dont' tell the others.
