Rachel has started Tee Ball and is very excited and is enjoying practice and can’t wait for the games. I, on the other hand am not so excited. While Rachel is playing, Josh is helping coach, so Sarah and I get to sit on the stands and watch. Well there is another little boy about Sarah’s age that gets to watch too. So Sarah and this little boy were playing in the dirt, they made big piles in the dirt and then Sarah decided to roll around in the piles. So of course I freak out because my little girl is rolling around in the dirt (not grass but dirt). So I tell her that is yucky and to stop. So the next time I look over at her she is laying on her back in the dirt making a ‘dirt Angel’, can you say YUCK. The worst part is that we were suppose to go to a birthday party straight from the ball fields. So I brushed her off the best I could, she reminded me of Pig Pen from Charlie Brown, with a cloud of dirt surrounding her the rest of the night. This may be a long season for me.
I actually wish I did have a picture to post so you could see how DIRTY that little girl was but of course, the camera was at home.
If you’re gonna play baseball, you have to get used to red, impossible to clean dirt and millions of goatheads. It’s just the way it is. Just be grateful you aren’t playing at the far north field.
I LOVE IT! Little kids are supposed to play in the dirt. Maybe I’ll bring her to my house to play in the mud while you are in town! I know it gave you a heart attack!
