Silas started T-ball this spring. It's funny how you expect your child to learn all these things about the sport and teamwork, but you don't realize how much you will learn yourself. We've both been learning the ropes this year.
He had a few weeks of practice before any games started. The kids learned how to throw (and so did Mommy), they learned how to stand while trying to hit the ball (and so did Mommy), and they learned where to throw the ball once they caught it (I already knew this one).
This is Silas (in the striped shirt with black trousers) learning to throw the ball. Make an 'L'! He has two great coaches that are patient and kind, but who really have taught them a lot about baseball.
Eli has had fun playing in the grass behind the field and meeting new kids to play with. Give him some dirt or a pile of hay and Eli's good to go.
We got Silas' uniform (NOT a costume!) and we put it on and took some pictures.
He told me had to look serious in these photos, because ball players were serious. No clowning around here - for the moment at least!
