Its only just begun...

And so it begins the countless hours of Michael wanting to play baseball. He waited so patiently all day as Steve and I busily worked on our outdoor chores. After hours of car scrubbing and weed pulling it is now time for you Michael. So to the backyard we headed. Me to to keep the others entertained and Steve to get some practice time in with Michael.

Every year I am simply amazed at how well this boy plays. Michael you don' t just like baseball, you looove baseball. Its fun to watch how you have improved from your days as a t-ball player to now in coach pitch. I'm looking forward to my spot on the bench this year to watch you in action. I was really hoping you be on a stronger team this year to work on your skills, but looks like we'll have to wait for next year, as you are one of the 3 oldest on your team. So instead we'll watch you run after every ball even if you are playing 1st base and the ball lands at 3rd base, hopefully you will give the younger kids a chance to grab the ball.
