Baseball Fever

Both boys are signed up for some version of baseball this spring. Andrew for coach pitch and Zane for t-ball. We were short one mitt and managed to get a good deal on one today at the store. Zane was quite excited to go out and play catch, so out into the front yard the two big kids went. Almost the very first throw went into the street. Very wisely they both raced into the house to find out what to do. Eric told Andrew that he could cross the street to get the ball and then they needed to scoot closer to the house so it wouldn't happen as often. As both boys hurried out the door we heard Andrew say to Zane, "You stay here. If I get hit go get mom and dad." (Not that we weren't watching out the window the entire time) Fortunately Andrew made it to the ball and back without getting hit by a car but it was quite cute how responsible he was about the whole thing. The boys had a great time tossing the ball back and forth. Shockingly no one got mad or upset. Hopefully this is a good indication of things to come in the next few years!

okay.. this is too good. I think you need to have a weekly post about Andrew Sayings! They are the most amusing thing I have read about him!
