That is awesome! Some of my best times were with a group of friends rollerskating. What nice keepsakes those photos and the article will be.

"There's nothing I love more than skating, other than my mom." That’s my favourite part ❤️ The photos and videos are fabulous, and what a great story. Thanks for sharing. 🙂

You have always been a part of the heist. You're only mad now because you don't like your cut.

I want to skate with Noah and Kev : : What a beautiful friendship. For those having trouble getting it to load, try a different browser. I had to switch to Chrome to get it to load properly.

Awesome! I also love the fact that he bought several pairs of skates when the skate rink closed. He sounds like a great kid. (...and yes, I saw that he is twenty, but he’s still your kid!) Thank you for sharing this!!

I can't get past the original photo of him tying his boots. It wants me to log in. That a shame I would have loved to have seen the rest of the photos and the article.

It was captured beautifully! I love how the digital medium allows for a mix of beautifully shot photos and live videos, so you really got a feel for their skating passion. 🥰

i could only see one picture, the one with him putting his skates on. not sure what i am doing wrong. If you’re on your phone, you have to kind of swipe the screen around to move from one to the next, the whole thing kind of weaves in and out as you do, well, like a skater. It’s fabulous.

That is so cool! The story and the photos/videos are beautiful. Makes me want to go buy some skates. I used to love skating as a child but have only done it a few times since. It would be wonderful to skate outside.

Absolutely beautiful story and photography. And the comments were a joy to read!
I wish every young person could have this experience of being really seen and appreciated by someone outside their normal circle and their unique qualities celebrated.
And a shout-out to Mom! Everything about this is just wonderful. Thanks so much for sharing it.
