Hitting, pitching and running...

How do kids have to ability to take you from absolutely "had it" to so immensely proud!? I think I've mentioned on here my struggles with "D" and his lack of interest and focus. Well unbeknown to us...he had a qualifying competition at his school for the MLB Pitch, Hit and Run. That he won! He then got to compete in the Sectionals which was held at our local Jethawks Stadium, holiday weekend and all.

He did the running...got a score.

(no picture of this...because let's face it...he's not very fast! Just picture the roadrunner...you know, how his legs move REALLY fast but the top goes nowhere? like that)

He did the pitching...got a score.

He did the hitting...got a score.

and then they tallied all the scores for a grand total of...

HE WON! for his age division!

So Proud!
