Birthday Weekend Extravaganza

Friday, June 25

Your "Sporties for Shorties" class kicked off your birthday by starting today. I know that you were excited, but Daddy and I were so excited for you that we could hardly stand it. Daddy was so pumped to have you dressed in a 'sporty' outfit with your Spartan t-shirt and baseball cap. So much so, in fact, that he also wore his matching Spartan t-shirt and baseball cap to be just like you. He was so proud, I just know it.

There are 12 kids in your class (including Addison) and about as many coaches. They divided your class into three groups of 4 kids - you were in the "all girl" group. You rotated between three stations - hitting practice, pitching practice and running the bases. Your class is for 3-5 year olds and I'm sure you are the youngest since you literally turned 3 the day the class started. You did great - you kept right up with all the "big" kids! Honestly, there is nothingnothingnothing more cute than seeing you - in your extra long yellow t-shirt and green baseball cap - so independant and brave holding your coach's hand, listening for instruction and following directions. Daddy and I's eyes were brimming with pride, and maybe a few little tears. Five more weeks of this class to go! (Yes, that means 5 more weeks of photos). It's the highlight of my week!
