Play Ball!

I am here at the park Smock Field, taking a break from helping to redevelope the elementary school garden, to watch the Teachers vs. The 5th Grade end of year baseball game. :D I work the 5th Grade Promotion tomorrow. I remember when I was a kid promotion was in 6th grade and Junior High started in 7th and finished in 8th. My, how times have changed! Anyway, the score is 7 to 2, in the 4th inning, Teachers lead. One gentleman reports to me he feels the teachers, particulary one, should hold back on their skills a bit, further stating, "It's not fair." I get his sentiment. I do. But a good time is being held by all. My 8 year old son, Shanathan, who is in 3rd grade, was just chanting, "Let's go teachers! Let's go !!" And he doesn't seem to be moved by all the other kids saying, loudly, "Let's go 5th grade! Let's go!!", over and over. That's my boy! Play ball! It is back to the game for me.
