On Sunday afternoon, Em and her Papa were merrily watching the golf. She loves to play with the myriad of golf balls that are floating around our house and was amazed to see the familiar white orbs on TV. Papa quickly explained the rules of the game, and Emerson was soon cheering for the golfers.
Em: "Tiger hit ball cup" {Tiger is hitting the ball in the cup.} "Uh-oh. I miss." {He missed} Then, when someone would make a putt, she'd clap and cheer and demand to see it again. So funny. You should have heard how happy Jeff was to be watching golf with her. So cute!
It wasn't long before he had the idea to get out his putter and some balls and teach her to putt. At first she was so excited.
Soon, as is inevitable in golf, she got frustrated. She even threw a Gatorade bottle across the room!
But she kept at it, and found it was much easier to putt with two hands on the putter. Ultimately, they both had loads of fun. I never thought I'd be so excited to see my kid golfing, but even I couldn't resist beaming from ear to ear.
P.S. Please disregard the fact that Emerson is still in her jammies at 4:00 on a Sunday afternoon. It was just that kind of day at our house!
