The Boys’ baseball season is soming soon!
The season starts the 31st of March. Gerritt has been practicing for a week. Jake and Josh start tonight.
Gerritt is in a “league” that does machine pitch. His coach has a machine in his backyard that I REALLY covet! I would love to have one! The boys would love to have it to practice. So- instead of spending thousands of dollars on a pitching machine with its massive net that protects the neighbors…we went and got a pole that has a swinging ball attached. Gerritt has a little quirk in his swing that has caused him to say-”I’m never gonna be any good.” So we thought we would get him and his brothers this little apparatus so they can practice- after all- if they don’t practice how can we expect them to go play with the Yankees???
Anyway- it’s been fun to use- I even love it! BJ seems to enjoy hitting with it. While I tried to nap today- he was out back swinging away with a pop pop pop sound that kept me from napping!
So- back to baseball season- they will have two games a week- plus practice! I didn’t realize baseball takes up so much time! There’s no set day for their games either- they are Monday through Saturday- makes life so fun (TIC)!!!

Just remind them both that according to family legend, he is related to the greatest baseball player that the Boston Red Sox ever lost, none other than Babe Ruth.
