Baseball Fever...

Jackson is playing on a T-ball team this year and he's definitely got baseball fever - BAD! Our whole family is a bunch of sports junkies so it is no surprise that even at age four - Jackson takes it very seriously. You probably read in my previous post that he even gets upset when practice is cancelled. Last year, we painted a football field in the back yard in addition to a baseball diamond. The football field has not been striped off yet (this is the off season you know) but the baseball field has made its first appearance. And as we tend to do where sports are concerned, we have taken it this year to a "whole notha' level" (as Ed would say). Eric (with a little Jackson help) painted the team mascot in our backyard and it is hard to say which one of them is more proud!
