Evan's Journey: Baseball 2013

Evan is very fortunate to have an opportunity to play baseball on a league for children with special needs. It is an awesome experience and he has played for 4 years now. We just started up his 4th season. My husband always says that it is just as much for me as it is for Evan. He says this because during baseball season I get to meet up with some of my dear friends and other moms every week and we get to watch and help our kids play baseball. It is so awesome. We are so grateful for this opportunity especially because our kids may not fit in well at the typical leagues. We don't worry about them having a melt down or not wanting to participate or throwing the ball the wrong way etc. We are all on a similar journey.

This past Saturday was our 3rd week and my parents came to watch Evan. He was so excited to see them and this season he has really been interested in the outfield just as much as he is in the hitting and running bases. He is ready to catch the ball and throw it if it is hit to him. He is such a ham as well. After he hit the ball everyone was clapping and cheering and he was waving to his "fans" as he ran to first base. Then he was on 3rd base and the ball was hit near him so even though he was on the opposite team he picked up the ball and threw it. He is so funny!!!
