Golf

Golfing in pajamas! That's the new style LOL! Hayley was trying out the new pair of gloves which we bought her over the weekend.

She has been attending golf lessons at Kindergolf Jelita for over a year now. My husband, KC, is a golfer while I am hopeless at golf! I have no ball sense whatsoever though I did take lessons before I was pregnant with Hayley and I am not sure when I will go for a refresher's course. I don't mind the sun but I just simply CANNOT AIM and HIT! Anyway, that's my problem!

Back to Hayley... she is the sort of child who is not able to focus on anything regimental nor routined but surprisingly, she is pretty okay at golf meaning that she is able to hit the ball correctly and requires minimal reminders on posture and tempo. That is indeed a relief to us all in constrast to the fact that she has relatively short attention span when it comes to doing her basic penmanship (including Chinese Characters) and simple arithmetic.

Last December, she has progressed to playing on the Par 3 Course and thoroughly enjoys the outdoor lessons. We also realised that she became more interested in the game after we attended the HSBC Women's Champions a few months back.

Oh by the way, Hannah hates golf! She told me that she much prefers swimming as she feels that golf requires too much walking under the sun. Now, swimming is one sport that Hayley is not able to master despite having taken lessons for more than a year now. Although she has no fear of water and clowns around in the pool more often than not, she does not seem to be able to synchronise her strokes. Guess she will need more time.......
