Her eagerness as a child to emulate her older sister and learn to ice skate
Well my older sister actually started skating, and my mom took her -- she was about six, and I was four at the time. Of course, my older sister was doing it so I wanted to do it too. My mom said 'You're too young, wait 'til you're six, and when you learn how to read and you're in first grade, then I'll take you.' So as soon as I turned six, I went 'Okay, I'm ready to go skating now!'
