Jack, my 5 year old, was so excited he didn't even notice it was way too cold to be playing on this Saturday morning! He got to go to bat 3 times and smacked it with all his might each time! He got to score 2 runs so this was a monumental day for this little guy!
Purple is his secret favorite color so he wears his uniform with the utmost pride! His brother teases him and says's that purple is a girl color? I tell him that is silly and he can have any favorite color he wants!
The joy I feel when watching my boys learn and grow is immeasurable....and truly I can think of nothing on this earth more important than being there to cheer them on! I grieve literally when I have to miss a practice or a game.....and only strive to be there for them as often as I can in their childhood experiences. I am so blessed to have been able to stay home with my precious boys from the day they were born and for the next 8 years.
Being their mother has brought me the most joy.....and I wouldn't trade one experience for all the money in the world!
Have a blessed day!
