I’ve become a Redsox fan! Despite over three decades living in Atlanta, being a mostly loyal Braves fan, another team has won my heart. Hopefully Tom Glavine won’t read this blog, since I seem to run into him all over Roswell. I wouldn’t want him upset with me or anything.
My boys both decide to try out baseball as the chosen sport for this Spring. They are playing through a school league, and they were both placed on the same team. That makes life so much easier for us … one practice, one game, fewer schedule conflicts. And we are excited to see how much they are improving each week.
Previously, both played soccer. My oldest enjoyed it, but he spent most of his time during the game watching the sky, the birds, counting leaves of grass, or pretending he was a super hero. My younger son spent most of his time during the game crying that he did not want to play. Baseball seems to have captured their interest and it’s wonderful to see! Matthew was even awarded the game ball last week! He played hard, stayed focused, and got a hit at every bat.
So here are my two favorite Allstars. Go, Redsox!
I think I have figured out why he’s having trouble hitting the ball.
