DANG! It was COLD at the diamond today!!!! We all dressed in our J finery and our Purple Murple outfits and headed out to face the winds, rain and COLD!
But as luck would have it, cold seems to be no threat to the boy. He was on fire today. Well, as on fire as a 6 year old can be. :-) He went 3/3 at the plate and handled himself VERY well behind the plate. Catching seems to be his thing. He also scored the tying run (by SLIDING into home and getting conked on the head) and was the only person to hit the ball into the outfield. The thing is - I'm not quite sure who was more excited J or his dad. :-)
We had after game dinner at Culver's and we talked and talked about J's game. As we went to a different topic he politely asked "Excuse me, can we talk about my baseball again?" Like there was a choice. :-)
So we dropped the girl off at Social Club (today was Cinco De Mayo Party) and headed to Wal-Mart to buy a new glove. All you die hard baseball fans - don't worry - I'm saving the old glove - just in case all the luck is in it. :-)
As we're walking through the store he turns to his Dad and asks "Who were we versus today?" He cracks me up, that boy.
So the girl comes bouncing up the stairs from Social Club and produces a back pack full of *stuff*. The obviously had pinatas' and lots of candy. :-) She's smiles from head to toe. What a difference an evening can make. :-)
