End of Summer and into Fall brought so much activity to our house. Jacob's first season of "real" baseball was a blast. After trying out he was "drafted" (yes the coaches actually draft players) by the Minor League Bulls. Although the commitment was a bit more that we had anticipated (4 nights a week!!) it was so fun to see him develop, improve, and have so much fun. Jacob had a great time playing second base, pitcher, and outfield. The Bulls went on to win only one game but their attitude and drive stayed strong! Just look at the joy on those boys' faces as well as the coaches when they won that single game. I realize now what our parents must have gone through on the sidelines!! The disappointment and elation that comes with sports is worse as the parent!!! You want it so bad for them and you feel every moment!! I don't think Nathan and I ever had a win that made us feel as happy as watching Jacob's team finally clinch one!!
