This Saturday is our first T-Ball Game.  I am so exited but at the same time a little nervous.  I tell myself and the rest of the parents that at this level is not a competitive sport and we don’t keep score even.

But sometimes I get nervous because I don’t know how much the 4 year olds know about scores and winning.  I know that Mikey gets really happy when we pretend to play connect 4 and I tell him he won even thought he really does not get the concept of the game.

Maybe he should loose one or two connect 4 games and I can try to explain to him about winning and loosing. 

Any suggestions on this topic would be appreciated.

My 4 year old started T-Ball this month and it has been a blast so far.  The Round Rock Youth Baseball League started 4U last season.  4U is T-ball for 4 year olds.

My husband volunteered to be the team Head Coach and he is enjoying himself as well.  I have to admit it was a bit hard at the beginning but I feel fine now after a couple of weeks and Opening Ceremonies out of the way.

I know that my son loves baseball and I could not wait till this season began to sign him up.  He loves the game, what can I say.  It’s fun to see all the little ones standing in front of the T and swing.  Some hit the ball others miss it the first time.  But it is such a blessing to see my son enjoy himself

Last summer, we had a fruit and vegetable garden in our house.  In "trying" to organize myself,  I came across this picture of the only watermelon we were able to grow the first summer we had our garden.

I have to say that it was very juicy and sweet.

I could not believe how this delicious watermelon came to be.  Hines the reason for the picture.  One day sitting in the back porch eating store bought watermelon my parents and I were chatting about anything and everything as the little ones played out in the back yard.  My Mom started throwing the seeds on the yard and every time she would say "maybe this one will grow".  Any ways to make this short story short, about end of August I think it was we were cutting the watermelon and I was taking pictures before we all jumped in to enjoy.

It was GOOD!
