It's baseball season...and that means we are at the field a lot. I love when the older boys are playing at a park where there are play sets or something for the little guys to do. On Friday night, Jonathon's team was playing under the lights at a park where Ryan (the older kids) normally play. One field wasn't in use, so they found some other kids and had a good old fashion game of kick ball going on. Of course, between the kids kicking/running, they also found the dirt! They could have been occupied for hours.
And on Saturday, Jonathon was playing at a field where there are play sets. They love going to this park! Marcel was very proud to be standing on a particularly tall part of the play set. He came over to me and specifically asked to be "pictured." I love the way he's laughing at Collin. Super happy little guy!
And here's Jonathon on first base...ready to roll. He's been hitting the ball really well this year! It's so nice to see his confidence grow on the baseball field. We were chatting about a missed play that a teammate made on the way home the other night and he said, "Mom, my team needs to believe in him. They need to believe he can make the play and he needs to believe in himself too. When my team said, Jonathon's going to hit Brandon and Nick in, I believe I could and so did they. I hit a double and got two RBIs." Love his perspective...we do all need to believe in ourselves and others. He then went on to say he learned that in karate. I love his karate instructor and so glad that he remembers that very important lesson.
Now...onto my card share for today :)....you all know by now that I'll eventually get to my card. I've been looking at the Embellish Challenge for a bit thinking about how I could create some movement on my card. Finally decided to stamp the sentiment in each color a few times to create a sense of movement. Hope you like it!
