ANOTHER All Star update


OK so here is an update on all stars again. I feel like this has been going on forever, well maybe because it has. With all the postponed games etc. we are living baseball around here. Well Ethan played Friday night against the other undefeated team and they lost, but Ethan could not have had a better game he got a double with an RBI, then he hit one out of the park and got another RBI plus himself, it was pretty cool. This was his second home run for the year. He was playing one of his best friends teams so even though they lost he had "bragging" rights. So because they lost Fri. they played on Sat. and they won. In that game he hit a double and a single, walked and grounded out. He also had the game winning catch, so he got the player of the game award. Needless to say he has had a great weekend. So now it continues, because they won they play the team they lost to on Fri. night tomorrow. It should be a tough game. And what was really cool is that his Uncle Royal and Aunt Denise were up here and got to see both of the games. Wow what a weekend.

You know something else pretty cool all during all stars they have to say the Little League pledge and the first line of that pledge for those of you that don't know it is "I trust in God" Now that is cool. Would that be there if the pledge was written today, I don't know but probably not. The people who wrote it thought that it was not just important enough to be in the pledge but to say it first. Now I know the kids have to say that but do we say that because we believe it and because we want to say it? Do we say that first when we are up against a "tough competition"? I don't know that I always do like I should. Do you? Just a thought started by baseball.
