We're back at the ball fields again for Fall Ball. The days are a little less wickedly hot and now Bridie sits on a blanket and contemplates eating grass and mommy shoos away fireants and Toony gets in some Big Sister time while we wait. It's a darned good way to blow an hour and a half twice a week.

A Passion
You know, 10 years ago if anyone had told me that I would look forward to slogging through the muggy heat to stand in the blistering son with a squirmy sweaty baby tied to me and any number of stragglers being hurried along in front of me to watch my son play ball at a Baseball Camp, I would have certainly laughed. I mosty likely would have laughed loudly.....and for a long time. However, now that I come to think about it....I wouldn't have laughed as much as I do now, because I just didn't laugh as much back then. Sheesh, sometimes these children make me downright tired, and they even often make me downright irritated despite my best efforts, but they most certainly have put more smiles on my face than anything I came up with on my own.
Here are some of my treasures, loving baseball with their Daddy.
I love them all.

The end of the baseball
I am worried about what will happen tomorrow night at dinnertime......the toddler will be at the door with the expectant look and the half-formed query..."baseball?"
Baseball is over! Sophie did Little League, Russell Coach's Pitch, and Nora T-Ball. Jack exulted in it all. We all had fun. Sophie said to me this evening...."You know, mom....sometimes when we stayed after the games and practiced...just us guys....that was a lot of fun....us all together." Sigh.
We are all gonna have serious withdrawl.
