This kid has come a long way! From his very first year palying t-ball and shoving rocks into his back pockets out in the outfield to today....today he found out he made the ALAQC JV baseball team! Jared andI could have vomited while we watched him take the long walk into the coaches office to find out if he made it or not...then we shed happy tears as he came out and threw us a thumbs up sign! He was so straight faced about it - we made him come over to us and promise us he had actually made it! He said the JV coach said, "As soon as I saw you, I knew I wanted you on the team!" Several weeks have passed and we have watched this boy blossom into what he has been striving for. He is so confident. Goes out there and hits the ball EVERY.SINGLE.TIME! He is a starter and bats at the top of the line-up. Knock on wood...we don't want to jinx him, but we could not be more proud of the confident ball player he is! Coach Kuntz and Coach Thompson and Coach Sanchez have been so good for him! #12 is our new favorite number! (except at away games, then our favorite number is 6 - ha ha!)
