365 ~ 2016: Day 161

A birthday eve treat for my almost EIGHT year old. He asked his coach if he could try pitching and so tonight his coach put him in. He was on CLOUD 9. It didn't matter to him that he wasn't very good, he was so proud of himself and felt so cool up on that mound. But best of all, he said he wants to practice more so he can do it again! This is the kid who hasn't shown much interest in practicing outside of the game. Thanks Coach for giving him the best night of his almost EIGHT years! And thanks to his teammates and the other team for being patient and most of all KIND!!
