finally we play

Tonight we finally got to get out and play tennis. Sam had to walk around the track to earn PE credit for when she was absent so we were able to play tennis right next to the track. As we were driving to the school TJ kept asking how it was going to feel for me to lose. I just kept saying I don't know you will have to tell me when you lose. We started to hit the ball back and forth and he realized that yep, mom still has skill. After just hitting it back nice and slow so TJ could figure out how to hit the ball he asked if we could hit it hard. So we started really hitting it back and he realized it was harder than he thought but he was able to keep up. We had alot of great vollies back and forth. We had alot of fun and I loved feeling like I was getting exercise. After we were done the little ones took turns trying to play. It was so funny to see them try to hit the ball. They would try to hit it and then they would miss and then just start laughing so hard. I think it will be fun going to play once a week with the kids and hopefully Thayne will join us when he is home. I think the last time Thayne and I played tennis was when I was 7 months pregnant with TJ and I won. I think we can get him out with us though.
