Okay, this is "Mommy Brag Time!"
I'm so proud of Sunshine Girl. She started taking tennis lessons at Huber Tennis Ranch in September, just about 4 months ago. She is in the beginner class, along with about 20-25 other kids ranging in age from about 5 to 10 years old. The Ranch started a new program that is similar to the belt program in Karate/Judo. But instead of "belts" it is "Grips", with the lowest being a White Grip...the best being Black Grip. Whatever level you achieve, you get grip tape put on your racket in that color. (The coaches can just look at your racket and know what skills you have achieved and what you need to work on).
The entire class was tested last week. We found out last night that my girl made Orange Grip. She completely skipped over white and gold. She is the only student in her class that achieved that level! I can't believe how she has taken to tennis. She really is a natural! I'm so proud of her.
I love tennis...it is one of the few sports that you can continue actually playing most of your life! And best of all, Joe and I can play tennis with her!! (Unlike when she was in gymnastics! LOL) Here is my girl in action...
