Summer Begins...

Summer began with two boys in baseball but this was much to Brett's dismay. After the first game he decided he was right and just plain didn't want to play this year. His K-18 team has enough players without him so he didn't leave them in a pinch. Jake, on the other hand, is enjoying it once again. (...when he remembers to go.)

I have been working at Mom's in the early mornings, 6:30ish until 8:30. Then I get cleaned up and head into Stockton to be an aide for extended summer learning from 9 to 11 M-Th. It is a wonderful learning program for the kids, teachers and aides. I get home and the boys are just rolling out of bed! THIS is where Jake has had a problem remembering to go to practice. It's not that he doesn't remember, he is not awake! But we have fixed this and he now has a good working alarm clock (thanks to HomeDepotSupply) across the room! It's working so far, he's at practice right now! Chris, as usual, has been working. He has also been training a new officer from California.

Jake has had 2 nights of games and 2 nights of rain outs. So they have played the same team 2 times and both games have been close in the end. Last night's game he got walked each time at bat and scored every time. He is a very good base stealer - since he is as fast as lightening! (He got that mostly from his father - although I remember being fast in the day.)

Happy Father's Day to all Dads!
