Baseball Season

So, we are in the middle of baseball season and its always a crazy time of year for our family. Brett now coaches the Freshman team so he would not have any night games but that has left his nights open to go watch the Soph and Varsity games. This has really been such a great opportunity for Ayden and Brett to have some time together! Ayden loves going out to the ball diamonds with his dad and 'play baseball' I am amazed some days at his attention span as he actually sits and watches the game. He also gets to play in the hitting nets, ride the tractor with his daddy, go find balls, and eat more junk food than he has ever had in his life! :) There have even been a few nights that Ayden asks to pray for Daddy Coaching. So sweet and it reminds me that Brett's love for coaching is something that blesses our family even if it takes him away from our family a little more than normal!

Well, since baseball games have started Ayden is often found "playing baseball" at home. He loves to slide like Sean and hit like Andrew and Terry on the TV. (Brett LOVES watching NU and CF on channel 15...me not so much...)

This morning Ayden came running out of his room saying "hurt" and holding his forehead. I gave him a kiss and he was back running around. A few minutes later I realized that he actually had a big bump and red mark were I had just kissed. Here is our conversation about his ouchie...

"Ayden what happned to your head?"
"Slide, Sean"
"You slid like Sean. What did you hit?"
"The field"
"Did you hit your head on something in your room?"
"The baseball field"

So, I still do not know what happened to his head but he was pretending to be on the baseball field and slide like Sean... How I love having a little boy!!!!
