Skater mom makes skater girl...skater children!

I will never forget the fact that i used to be a skater girl. I cherish that part of my childhood soo much!
I started rollerskating at the age of 7 i think. Dad bought me one of those metal adjustable roller skates, the ones that requires u to use shoes on it. It was so heavy that it took me a long time to be able to skate on my own.
Then I was regularly skating around the neighbourhood. Had my neighbour Farah to skate with.
I later feel in love with a pair of skates at Toys R Us. It was one of those roller skates that comes with boots. Looks kindda like ice skates to me at that time. Love love loved it.
Until I started browsing some magazines...saw some sexy ladies skating the inline skates by the beach. Told my dad..I WANT THAT.
A year later, my Ultra Wheels arrived. A year later, we started importing inline skates by the container loads to Malaysia. I then got to change my skates every month or so...Always got to try new skates! That was the best job ever!

Today, many years later...my daughter saw a pair of roller skates at Toys R Us. It was a barbie design. How toyish! But i still had to get it for her. She's such a natural that Nabil envies her skates.
I will not buy a toy skates for him. I think Nabil should be able to fit into the smallest children in line skates that available in the market. Poor boy had to sneak out to use the sister's skates. Driving me to tears...(ok, i'm overly emotional).

Nabil will be 5 and Ayesha will be 3in August. Never too young to start. ermm....didn't i vow to start my children skating before they start to walk? hahahahahhahah, I'm so late...they are walking, runnning & cycling.....
