My Life Has Been A

Even Now, My Husband Jerry, Our Son Matthew And I Live Only Five Minutes Away From My Parents Home, And My Brothers Live About Ten Minutes Away. It's Been Great Having Such A Supportive Family.

I Started Skating When I Was Six Years Old.

I Like To Try All Kinds Of Styles So It Always Challenges Me And Forces Me To Try To Look Different.

I Took Group Lessons At A Rink Near My Home. We First Had To Learn How To Stand Up On The Ice Wearing Skates. Eventually We Learned To Move Forward, But Soon Found Out That It Was Not That Easy To Stop! So That Was Our Next Important Lesson.

But After A Few Minutes Of Convincing Myself That I Really Wanted To Go - Telling Myself That I Love Skating And That My Coach Is There Waiting For Me - I Would Get Up And Go. And My Mother Would Always Get Up And Eat Breakfast With Me!
