Jasper is playing T-Ball again and apparently Spring ball is WAY crazier than Fall ball.Which I believe since we have games during the week and in the fall he only played on Saturdays. But I digress, Jasper is playing T-Ball and is so excited! This past Saturday was Opening Day in Dunnellon for T-Ball, Baseball and Softball! The day starts off with a parade through town of all the teams and ends at the ball park for opening ceremonies. Now I have to saw it was a bit disorganized but over all we had a ton of fun especially since this was our first one to be apart of!!

Jasper chose to be #6 since he will be turning it in July
and is the oldest kid on the team! |
The Thursday before was his first practice and when it was over, Jasper wanted to continue practicing. So Amanda (Jasper's mom) and I stood and talked while Jasper and his daddy practiced.
This boy has found his love! I mean after practicing with his team, his daddy and him continued to practice for a good 30 mins more. He was crying hysterically because we made him load up. He just didn't want to stop. Friday after school, we practiced some more and even on Saturday he wanted to just keep hitting and catching the ball. He has found his passion in baseball...and this MyJ hopes it continues! He is learning and growing up so quickly. He is learning to work with others as well as share the spotlight. And often for this sweet step-son of mine, sharing the spotlight does not come easy especially since he is the only child and gets spoiled quite a lot. But he is learning and is becoming so much more of a giver and not a taker.
I am so proud of the growth I see in him and the differences between last season and now already are HUGE. I cannot wait to see the growth and love of the game he will have by his last game! So here are some pictures from Opening Day!
