2 weeks for a axel is really fast. Most people I know took at least a year. Great job

Uh. . . YEAH!! You have no idea how long it takes some skaters (including me) to go from a landed lutz to a landed axel!
But I bet it was kind of fun surprising her. I landed my first axel when my coach wasn't around (although he had been working on it with me) and it was fun to show him for the first time and have him see that I wasn't kidding when I said I could land it!
