Thomas and Spring started tennis lessons this evening. The City Recreation Department offers a 4 week tennis clinic for beginners. It is one night a week for an hour which is perfect because it doesn't interfere with family time and it gives them a taste of the sport to see if they really enjoy it. Thomas has been wanting to learn to play tennis for months now so this was perfect. He and Spring both have been so excited for the lessons to begin and tonight was the first night. Joel took Sammy and Mary as well so they could play at the park while the kids had their lessons. I was going to go as well with Joshua but Joel convinced me that I needed to take the time to rest and stay home this week. He is concerned that I am pushing too much and he just wants me feeling as good as possible before we leave for Washington next week.
Thomas and Spring came home very excited about all they learned. They now want to go and get tennis rackets of their own (the clinic provides the rackets and balls for the kids). Sammy and Mary had a great time playing at the park as well. The lessons ended at 6:30 so they got home in time to get ready for bed, have dessert, read scriptures and stories, and head to bed. They were so tired that none of them fought going to bed!
