Isaac is really (really) into baseball right now. He loves watching A's games, he can identify several players by sight, and he's fascinated by understanding how the game works. Last night, feeling inspired by some of the signs he's seen fans holding up during games, he decided to make a few of his own. This is one of them.

It may be a little hard to make out some of the text, but he's basically cheering several players. (And of course, asking to be put on TV.)

But my favorite part is the little rhyme at the end that mentions Coco Crisp. Admittedly, it doesn't make a lot of sense, but he was so proud of devising a poem (or "pome," as he wrote it) that he literally twittered when reading it to me for the first time.

For my kids' God-given creativity and enthusiasm, I'm so thankful.
