    Toren is a very physically active little kid.  If he’s not diving off couches, he’s running around with a baseball bat.  To make things a little easier, I rigged up a way to suspend a tennis ball in our ultra-small lanai so Toren can swing to his heart’s content:

  • Toren dancing with Debi

  • Toren driving his car
