Ball girl





We took Lily to the tennis courts this morning for the first time. In general, she wasn't too interested in her racquet but had endless fun with the balls. She ran after them, tried to hold them all at once, put them in the containers one by one and then dumped them out again. Luckily, we were the only ones on the court so she played til her heart's content while we actually got to hit the ball around for over an hour! It has been so long since we've played, and I have really missed it. I wasn't sure how it was going to go with little bits, but it was even better than I could've imagined. It was so fun to share this part of our lives with her. I know it was particularly meaningful for daddy who has been waiting to share one of his favorite activities with Lily. It was one of the best mornings I have had in quite some time. There's nothing like being able to spend time with your family doing something you love to do.
