Ting Tong

Yesterday we visited Granpa Bob and Geri. They got a new ping pong table which Adam and Gerrit broke in. Gerrit enjoyed watching Grandpa Bob and Dad play but really loved it when he was able to
'play'. I use that word loosely because Gerrit's way of playing included a bounce on the floor before he hit it. Picture the ball bouncing numerous times on the table and then at least once on the floor before he would hit it (if he hit it at all). We were very impressed because he improved tremendously as the day progressed. I was thinking the whole time that this was a great hand-eye coordination activity for him (sad, but that is the PE teacher in me!). We had a delicious dinner before we headed back to GR. 


*why the name Ting Tong?

that is Gerrit's name for ping pong!
