Day 74: Roses For Mom

It's been such a long day. We woke up to rain, Cam had a tball game anyways, came home for two hours to eat lunch and throw our socks in the dryer from walking in the wet grass, drove back to the ball fields for Calen's game in the rain, came home and spent the rest of the afternoon and well into the night outside for our neighborhood block party. It was a great day, but I'm tired. 

Calen's game was forfeited today because not enough players showed up (8 are required to play, only 6 showed up before the umpire finally called the game and left. 1 more showed up later). But since both teams were there and dressed and ready and all the parents were sitting there in the rain, they decided to have a scrimmage game anyways. Even though it didn't count, it was way fun. Calen hit a single and had two more defensive outs, one at first and one at third. 

But the best part of the day was after the game, when the coach had all the kids line up on the third base line and invited all the moms/grandmas to the warning track. He had given all the boys a rose to give to their moms and in unison the boys yelled "Happy Mother's Day!"

For all my complaints I've had with this coach, I'll give him some major awesome points here. How can you not love a group of seven year old boys giving their mama's flowers??
