tennis, anyone??

Ethan's kinda following in my footsteps...tennis appeals to him. He took a class for the first time through the city rec program last summer (I took my first class when I was 6 also) and really enjoyed it. He also seems to have a 'knack' for it. He just finished the class again (but w/a different instructor) on Wednesday, and he wishes it wasn't over. We'll just have to get to a court to practice w/him. ...We watched some Wimbeldon earlier. I wish I could take him there to see it in person. Heck, I'll settle for someone just taking me to any major tennis event; I have yet to attend one! I'd come back and enthusiastically tell him all about it, of course. :) ...I just hope he doesn't follow in my footsteps once he becomes an adult; besides playing some at college, I've only played a few times since I got married. Hopefully, he will keep playing regularly and not fizzle out like I did. I want to get back into it. And I will. ...I love it.


Since I knew I had to blog about this :), I went back to his class before it was finished to take some pictures. Here's a pretty good--I think--action shot of Ethan about to hit the ball. Oh, that kid next to him is named Ziggy...

Another shot of Ethan about to hit the ball; it was a bright morning...
