I can't wait to get out
there.
Skating looks like so much fun!
I'll just need a sec to lace
up my skates and we'll give the
ice a try.
Lisa, look at that girl
spinning around and around.
Wow!
That's called a camel spin.
Mom taught me the names of all
the spins when we were watching
champion skaters on TV last
week.
That girl must be a champion
skater.
I've always wanted to see one!
Well, you never know, Cordy.
Maybe we can be champion skaters
too!

[Skates scratching ice]
ANNOUNCER: What a beautiful
spiral, oh my goodness!
And that split jump done with no
problemo!
She really got some height on
that one!
Here's Lisa's trademark
corkscrew spin...
Whoa!
How can she spin like that
without getting dizzy?
[Audience clapping]
Thank you, thank you!
The judges are ready to
deliver Lisa's marks.

[Crowd cheering]
ANNOUNCER: Look at that!
Three perfect sixes!
Lisa is the new figure skating
champion of the world!
[Cheering]
Now don't forget your scarf.
If it's chilly enough for water
to turn into ice, it's chilly
enough to catch a cold.
Okay mom.
Whoa!
My skates are kind of wobbly.
Moving on skates for the
first time can seem pretty
strange.
Do you remember the first
time you tried on skates?
[Laughing]
Of course I remember!
It wasn't that long ago!
[Giggling]
Oh yeah.
Okay Cordy, ready to try
skating?
Ready!
[Skates scratching ice]
Whoa!
Gotcha!
That was a close one.
Guess I'll have to get used
to how slippery the ice is
before I can do spins and jumps,
huh?
That's right, one step at a
time.
Look, we're skating!
Remember to keep your knees
bent.
That's it!
[Corduroy humming]
♪
[Skates scratching ice]
Okay mom.
I think I wanna try it by
myself.
Already?
You've got your balance?
Uh-huh.
Okay, keep close to the edge
of the rink.
You can grab on to the railing
if you need to.
Oh no!
[Thudding]
[Giggling]
Are you alright?
Yup, don't worry mom.
I can do it by myself.
Are you sure?
I'm sure.
I'm going to let go now.
Alright then, hon.
I'll be right there if you need
me.
You okay back there?
Yeah, but if you fall again,
try not to fall backwards and
squish me, okay?
Okay.
[Skates scratching]
Whoa!
[Thudding]
Do you need any help?
I'm okay, thanks.
I just slipped.
She's a way better skater than
me and I'm even older than she
is.
Come on, let's skate again!
Well alright, but I'm getting
tired of falling.
The ice is hard...and cold.
That's my girl!
One step at a time.
Keep going, keep going!
Oh we're so far away from the
benches!
Ah!
Look out!
[Screaming]
Duck!
[Grunting]
Got it!
Phew.
[Panting]
Did we make it, Lisa?
You can open your eyes,
Cordy.
We're back on the benches.
Lisa, you were really skating
well for awhile.
Are we going back on the ice?
Why are you taking your
skates off?
I don't feel like skating
anymore.
I'm, um, I'm t-too cold.
Here, I brought an extra
sweater.
Thanks, but the, t-the rink
is too busy anyway.
You're not giving up already
are you?
You know what they say.
'If at first you don't succeed,
try and try again'.
Yeah, but every time I try, I
fall.
I'm sure if you kept
practicing, you'd be a fine
skater one day.
Don't give up, Lisa.
You might not fall next time you
try.
Well I'm not giving up on
you, but how does a hot
chocolate sound in the meantime?
Sounds good.
Thanks, mom.

Somersault?
I wish I could do a somersault.
It's a cinch.
I'll show you.
Ta-da.

Whoa, I wanna do one!

Good try, Cordy.
Now this time, try to start with
your head tucked down just a
little more.
Ta-da!
Whoa!

Oops.
Corduroy!
Cordy, you okay?
[Muffled] Mmm hmm.
Now this time, how about a
little more, away from the
closet and closer towards the
bed.
[Grunting]
Well, not that close to the bed.
Try again!
There you go.
Okay.
[Cat meowing]
Sorry!
This is harder than it looked
when you and kit did it.
You can do it, I know you
can!

I did a somersault!

Way to go, Corduroy!
I knew you could do it if you
kept trying!
Lisa...how come you didn't
keep trying at the skating rink?
I don't know.
I guess I just didn't think I
could do it.
That's funny, because I
didn't think I could do a
somersault, either.
Hmm.
Skates laced, check.
Mittens on, check.
Umm...scarf tied, check.
Come on then before the ice
melts into a pond.
Okay.
Ready?
You can do it, Lisa!
Ready!
Keeping my balance, bending my
knees, I can skate.
I know I can.
That's it, Lisa!
You're doing great!
I'm doing it!
I'm skating!
You sure are!
Keep going hon!
[Giggling]
Phew.
Lisa you're catching on very
quickly.
I'm glad you decided to try
skating again.
Me too!
If you keep this up, you're
going to be an excellent skater.

Maybe some day you'll be able to
do a jump like that too.
Yup and until then, I'll just
keep on trying.

I once knew a little girl in
school that everyone called
String Bean Jeannie.
That was her nickname because
she was so thin.
Thin as a string bean.
At first, Jeannie found it
kind of funny, but then it got
shortened from String Bean
Jeannie to just, Beanie.
Before you know it, she was
Beanie Weenie.

One day, when I was walking
home from school, I found her
hiding behind a tree, crying her
eyes out.
She'd had enough.
So I made it my mission to let
everyone know that from that
point on, Jeannie would be
called Jeannie and nothing else.
