No, I'm not talking about spring, or the time change, or the much anticipated day that Jeremy went back to work.... I'm talking about the very best time of year, at least in our house....BASEBALL SEASON!!!! All over America thousands of fans flocked into their favorite major league stadiums to witness the glory of opening day. In our house we flocked to the Southern Little League field to watch our all time favorite baseball player take the field. My own little man donned his little league volcanoes uniform, ball cap and cleats. He took the field with pure love for the game written all over him. MY boy, one of the youngest on the team, took his place at first base and it was all business. It's amazing how proud you can be of a 7 year old playing a game of baseball. And I was extremely proud of the fact that my boy was playing first base but I was also proud at all those games when my little boy played the outfield and never even had a ball hit his way. I'm am so in awe of the passion, drive and determination inside that little man to play the game he loves not to the best of his ability but better. I have seen so many kids who have this amazing raw talent. Not Dylan, he's small, not very quick, but what that boy lacks in talent he makes up for in heart. Dylan plays as well as he does because he's all heart and he's determined to be the best at everything he does and even better at the things he loves. And by the way, they WON!!! Just in case you were wondering. :)
