Tennis Camp

I got an email from the Kennesaw Parks & Recreation dept saying that they still had some summer camps open for kids.  I really did mean to sign Harrison up for a camp or two this summer, but I completely slacked and never ended up signing him up.  So, this email came at a great time, because I have been looking for something fun for him to do.  I noticed that they had a "munchkin tennis camp" for 3 - 6 yr olds and I thought he would love it!  This is his first official lesson of any sport, so it was fun to watch him this morning.  There were about 5 kids in his lesson, so he seemed to get bored when the other kids were taking their turns, but overall I think he did very well.  They had the kids balance a tennis ball on their racquet and they practiced hitting over the net, while standing right in front of it.  It  was so cute to watch him!

Most of the kids were pretty quiet during the lesson, but I could hear Harrison talking the entire time to the teachers.  When he wasn't talking to them, he was yelling to me, "Mom!  Are you watching me??  Wait till you see me hit this ball!!  Mom, keep watching okay??  Mom, I just found a penny, want to see??..."  So cute, it was hard not to laugh.  I had to just keep telling him to try to pay attention and listen.  Its only a 3 day camp, for 45 minutes each day, but I hope the next two days go as well as today!
