Blastball

Jack played his first BlastBall game tonight. BlastBall teaches all five basic fundamentals of baseball---hitting, throwing, catching, running and fielding. Shawn was asked if he would like to "coach" and he accepted. I was interested in seeing how Shawn was going to manage fourteen 2.5-3 year olds. For any of you who don't know Shawn, he is definitely not one for large groups and not much of a talker. This isn't something I would have ever expected Shawn to agree to do. Luckily with the help of some parents, it all went smoothly. Should be an interesting 6 weeks. Jack did well. We lost his attention however by the end of the second "inning". He decided it was time to go check out the playground. Oliver was well behaved while we watched Jack play. He sat quietly and was full of smiles, even though it was cold and raining. I'm still amazed that a 3rd inning was actually played. It should be fun to see how all the kids progress in the next six weeks.
