Boys tennis season is in full swing (ouch!) and Isaac is playing 2 singles this year. He has had two matches already, losing both: 2-6, 0-6 and 4-6, 4-6. At this rate, he thinks he will win his next match! He loves the game, his fabulous coach, and the fun of being on the team. At supper after the last match he started chuckling, remembering the ride home in the activity bus. He told us this story: Stopped at a stop light, he noticed a businessman in an SUV next to the bus; his window was rolled down. So Isaac opened the bus window and said, “Hi, there, how are you?” Startled, the man answered, “Fine, how are you?” And so began a brief but delightful conversation about high school and tennis. The light changed and traffic began moving again, but a few blocks later, when the man turned to head home, he waved to Isaac. I think meeting Isaac was the highlight of his day. Hearing about it was the highlight of mine!
