Tball!

Will started on a Tball team a few weeks ago.  He has always loved baseball and is really excited to be on a team this year. 

As we are discovering, doing a team sport is a full family commitment! He has games two nights a week from 5:30 til 7pm and sometimes has practices on Saturday mornings. It's only a 7 week season, so the chaos will be short lived. In the meantime, we are trying to keep 4 other kids entertained at the ball fields and feed everyone a late dinner a few times per week. 

So far he has had two games and has loved them! He also loves that his best friend from school is on his team. Before his first game, he wanted to know if we needed to buy tickets to his first game and how many fans would be there! 

It's really entertaining to watch a group of 5 year old boys chase after a baseball, give their best swing at bat, and slide into home base just for the fun of it. And then there's the kid who is standing in the outfield yelling "mom, I need to go potty!" And the kid who randomly comes out of the dugout to the stands to give his mom a hug. Pretty cute! 

So here's to our first Tball season!
