I love you not only for who you are, but for what you are when I am with you.
I love you not only for what you have made of yourself, but what you are making of me.
I love you because you have done more than any creed could have done to make me good, and more than any fate could have done to make me happy.
You have done it without a touch, without a word, without a sign.
You have done it by being yourself. Perhaps that is what being a friend means, after all.

Summer of Baseball

Michael is just starting his 3rd baseball tournament in as many weeks

We have been at the ballpark most days of the week.

He is really enjoying the teams, coaches and practice.

He is hitting more and has been writen up on the CLL Website.

Michael over the winter practiced his pitching with

Brent Crowther (formerly with Colorado Rockies)  

Luckily it paid off and he really held his own Friday night

where he pitched for the 2nd time in this tournament.

Elvino was Assistant Coach

Today all games were cancelled due to rain.

Time to spend updating my blog, and scrapbooking.

Making it a crafty day.
