June 5

Today marked the end of the "regular" baseball season. (Kind of. Brady still has playoffs, and Isaac's regular season kind of ended on Wednesday, but there was a last-minute tournament added to the calendar for today so... yeah.)

Anyway, Adam and I took Isaac up to Danville for his 9 AM game. (He's the small, white-panted kid standing on third base.) Blue won game one handily, and we headed back home to await game two and Brady's match-up, which were both set for 4:30. 

When the time came, Adam returned to Danville with Isaac and I shuttled Brady to the Sports Park. Both teams wound up losing, but over dinner, both boys were pleased with their own play. (For the most part. Brady was pleased; he pitched an inning, he hustled like crazy all game long, and although the defense wasn't great behind him, he threw good pitches. And he had the only hit his team notched and scored their only run. And Isaac? Well, Isaac is notoriously critical of his own play, although game one did provide us with a chuckle-worthy moment when he singled and then tripped over first base... with Adam recording the at-bat. It was kind of glorious and the video clip will no doubt become a Wight Classic.)

Anyway, 1-2 record aside, it was a very good day. It was beautiful outside, I got to spend time with my hunny, and I got to watch Isaac and Brady play baseball. No, it was a great day. And I am thankful.
