Shave and a haircut, two bits

 

First game.

Our first t-ball game.  The boy seems so grown up sometimes, and alternately so behind in many ways, that it’s fun to see him kids his age and ability level all in it together.  Piles of kids trying to catch the same ball.  Running past a base, or trying the catch a ball hit by your own teammate. 

 

First at bat

First time coming into home base

It took a few minutes to figure out the high five chain

To think : some want armed guards roving a t-ball field. SMH 

T-ball

 Look at this precious boy.  Thinking and crying for those families that aren’t going to t-ball practice because their child was killed by some monster with another AR-15.  And the pro-gun groups that think a murderers right to own a gun is more important than my son’s right to have a childhood.

Floridian mother’s day

 I mean, the governor is bonkers, so I wouldn’t want to live there, but it is pretty in Florida.  For our first real vacation as a family, we went to the Florida keys for a week and came back tan, relaxed and full of key lime pie.

Little weirdo

 After kindly opening the door for an elderly lady, the boy insisted on my taking a video of him doing this:

Mountain zoo

 It was spring break, and we went to the zoo about an hour from our house.  It was much closer experience than the closer zoo.

The hippos just had a baby.  He was hanging out with mom in the pool and would occasionally pop up for a quick breath.  It was a rare treat, but I failed to catch it on video.
