Who needs their eyes open?  Viv gets intuitive with her swing. 


The package arrived on the porch sometime early last week.  Jerry was so excited to present Ella with her first set of golf clubs.  Waiting until the 24th (her birthday) was clearly out of the question.  They were purchased used on ebay, came with a pink bag and pink balls and were the perfect size for Ella.  I think I may have heard him "squee" with delight upon opening.  Ella immediately took to the gift; learning how to hoist the bag on to her shoulders and choose her club.  She and Jerry began setting up a make-shift putting green in our living room within minutes.  Later that night, a second putting green was crafted, right next to her bed.  I could hear the ping of the tin can as balls would roll in, well past her bedtime.  She is even sleeping with her golf balls.  I'm certain the Christmas Unicorn Pillow Pet is seething with jealousy.  But in all seriousness, I'm so excited for Ella and Jerry.  I can imagine in the years to come such a strong bond forming in the golf cart; this experience they can share together.  Viv seemed much more interested in climbing into the golf ball baskets...but who knows, in time the three of them may even talk me into being their fourth.
