The First Day of Spring, I Think

The calendar says today is the first day of spring. Spring. That means warmer weather is on it's way. Warmer weather. Well, I don't know about all of that, because today was a yucky, cold, rainy day. But I have to believe that, yes, warmer weather is on it's way!

So what do you write about when it's the first day of spring when the weather is anything but like what the first day of spring should be like?

Well,you write about the things of spring that you are looking forward to. And that would be, BASEBALL.

That's right, it's just about time to pack up the car and head off to the diamond for 9 innings of baseball! Now I have to be honest. It's not just baseball that I get excited about. While I enjoy the game and being at a stadium, the real reason I love the game is the simple fact that my #2 plays.

Our #2 has been playing baseball for years. He loves it. I love that he loves it. But the best part is, he's pretty good. This year I'm stoked because as an 8th grader, he will be playing on the freshmen team this season. This is exciting for us. We are so looking forward to watching him continue to develop and grow within the game.

Spring. Baseball. Warmer weather. Yeah, it's coming.
