"Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God, But only he who sees takes off his shoes, The rest sit 'round it and pluck blackberries."

Tennis

This summer the girls are in a tennis class together.  They are all in different ages for soccer, so we went for a sport where we could hit two birds with one stone.  Besides, tennis is fun, right?  At least, that's what my roommates in college always told me - I walked around the court in gym because my hand/eye coordination was so "special."  So far, the girls have loved it, and Ellie - true to form - has memorized all the names of the lines.  Meg - true to form - mastered tying her shoes.  (A skill that Ellie and I traumatized and cried over, and that Meg did on her own while I got dressed.)  They are fun to watch together.



The boys had fun playing on the sidelines.  They are easier to take pictures of because they aren't across the court, so there are more pictures of them.
