U.S. Open 2023

JT and Aya went to the tennis courts with me when I was using the ball machine and JT loved watching the balls. So much so that he stood right in front the machine and got hit in the face! He also threw a John McEnroe fit when the ball machine ran out of balls and he started hitting my favorite racket against the ground. Before I knew it my racket was broken. =(

I wasn't going to let JT ruin another racket, so today I went out and bought him his very own racket. He was 100% this afternoon....missed EVERY single ball!

Here is video of JT prepping for the U.S. Open in 2023. Notice the reflexs, the hand eye coordination, the grit and determination.




I mean who else can stand there so calmy and not even notice the balls go by! What a dork.
Sadly, the tennis adventure doesn't end there. Aya jumped in to hit some balls next. I warned her to be CAREFUL where she sits. Naturally JT was wandering around the court. Can you guess where this is going. This isn't rocket science is it. Yup, Aya took a forehand swing. JT was about 10 feet away. ** THUMP ** right off the side of JT's head. Brilliant! Too bad I didn't get that on video!

melissa-

yeah, it cracks me up to watch the video because JT just stands there. doesn't even flinch or take notice of the ball.
