Ron Pollack: Family News & Updates

The art director is doing such a good job: it's really gone from being amateur to almost pro, last night was the school Christmas play. I was astounded that my kids performed so well. With Rachel's complete confidence it was easy to see the excitement in her face. (She looked adorable in Nathan's old Dalmatian costume). Levi and Lila also had fun on stage: they love to sing, and they also got to show some of their  gymnastics skills.
Levi has become crazy about tennis.  He quit gymnastics and goes to tennis clinic almost every afternoon. He's going to be so good. He enjoy's any sport with a ball, he is turning out to be an all around athlete. (A mutual friend in the neighborhood who played collegiate baseball, would always comment on our six-year-olds amazing throwing arm, while they played catch, and when he was just a little older he only ever had an interest in shooting hoops.) It was golf this past summer.  For years we tried to steer him towards tennis, but we're still trying. It is something our family can do together. (whereas my baseball and basketball days are long gone). Not only is Levi now inspired, but Mimi and I are starting to play more again too, because our city tennis center got a new pro, Eric, who's really good.
