Ok, so this isn't Shelli, and she didn't win a big fat trophy, but in my mind she IS a tennis champ! Her team had 2 injured players, so they put her at the #1 singles position (her most feared place to be) for the USTA tennis tournament this weekend. She plays some singles with me and with a couple of friends, but by far most of her tennis practice is doubles. She was soooo nervous!Friday I couldn't be there to watch, but she won both her singles matches! I was so proud of her. The tournament "nerves" can be tough to overcome, especially during the first match. Saturday we drove to Yakima and I got to watch her at her first "away" matches. She was so nervous again that she gave away her first set 0-6! she came back and won the second set 6-3, then the ti-breaker 10-4! She won her next match 6-3, 6-3! 4 singles matches in one weekend, undefeated! Go Shelli! Henin may have retired, but you're on a roll! Love u!

She rocked the weekend!!!!! Go Shelli!
Sounds like Shelli found some unrecognized She-Woman within herself this weekend! Way to go! Fear, Shmear!
Thank you so much sweetie! Just knowing you were there calmed AND strengthened me. Thanks for being my best cheerleader! ILU!
Wish I could have watched! I would have embarrassed her with my cheering! Thanks for the update! I love your wife! You, too!
