Ever since Scout learned he was going to play T Ball this year, he has asked when it was going to start.  Well, last Friday was the big day.  He was so excited, and had practiced so he was prepared.  I was a little nervous about how he would be, but he exceeded my expectations. And he followed all of the rules I gave him before we got there.

Listen to the coaches (most classic coaches of all time), and do what they ask.

Try your hardest.

When we got out, I told him, “Wow Scout , you did a really good job, and followed all of the rules.”  Then I proceeded to tell Daddy all of the rules he followed.  And when I finished, Scout piped in with, “And Mom, I also followed the rule to not cry.”  I had forgotten that rule, but it is true — Scout didn’t cry for even one second!

And the best part — when we were heading home, I told him how important it is to put his cleats back in the shoe cupboard so that whenever it is game or practice time we know where they are.  Again, I forgot I had told him that, but when I went to put his Ugg boots away that very night, the cutest and teeniest cleats sat just where they were supposed to!
