Baseball...As In Life...


Find your team...ask questions...seek guidance...


Be ready for what comes your way...


Just know there will be setbacks...failures...disappointments...



Seek out personal coaching...counseling...wisdom...when you need it...


Throw a little help...assistance...advice...to others when they need it...


Most of all...do your best... and try to hit it out of the park!
 





Hey Batta Batta..SuuWiinngg!

  5. Thanks everyone!

    Yes, that's my little guy out there. He is adjusting to this new "tough" team fairly well. If he decides to play in the spring we can just hope he gets on a team that's not quite so serious.

  11. Cute photos of your son playing baseball. I've spent many hours sitting on bleachers. Miss it...it's been a long time. A lot of fun, tho. Have a great weekend.

  14. Love how you tied baseball to life and showing your little tyke embracing it. Very clever. Thanks for stopping by my blog and for your sweet comments. In reading your interests on your profile, we seem to have a lot in common, including gardening and reading and religion. I grew up in the Midwest--a Cornhusker. Enjoy your day. I'll be back.
