Parker didn’t get to play his entire game due to scheduling conflicts so Tanner’s team is letting him be the batboy. He is on cloud nine. He pretty much feels like an integral part of the team. He grabs the bats and goes out for the team cheers. He is pretty cool.
At Parker’s game he got up in the first inning and hit a pitch down the third baseline. It is the first time that he got a hit directly from the coach without having to use the batting tee. He still doesn’t quite get the whole base-running thing. He hit the ball, took off his helmet and stood there. Everyone was hollering for him to run to first, which he eventually did. He is a funny little boy. We all love him a ton.
We had to leave early because the league messed up the game time for Parker’s game and so we got started 45 minutes late. By that time we only had time for him to play one inning before taking off to Tanner’s game. Normally we could figure this out, but Kris and Cassidy left on Friday to go visit her dad and to buy his old Camry, so I had the kids for the weekend. We had our logistical issues, but everything turned out fine. All is well, but we are all VERY glad that Kris is back to bring some sanity back to the household.
