While we were at Scout and Navy’s tennis lesson, Coach Warren asked how old PIppi was.  When I told him 4, he asked for a few minutes with her after class to see how close she is to lessons.  I was thrilled because they are gnarly about not starting them too young, and she was thrilled that she got to be a tennis player!

Her initial stance was hilarious!
Hand on hip, and barely enough strength to hold the racket!

Warren tossed her several balls, but she just couldn’t make contact.

And then after he went over to physically show her how to make that contact…she hit the next one…and the next!  They were soft taps, but she was excited, I was excited, and Coach Warren was excited to tell us that it will be a while before she will be able to start lessons.
Wah Wah Wah.
